My apologies for using the wrong phrasing.  What I meant to say
was I didn't stop to think someone might have a "www" subdomain
which did not provide a valid HTTP 200 response at the top level,
which seems to me to be extremely unusual.  (Not, I'm quite sure
many other domains do this too... it just seems unusual.)
