I get that.  My question, cleverly concealed in a rant, was, "Why does
clicking on the Documentation link at python.org NOT take me to
docs.python.org?"  Why is there a difference?  If there must be a
difference, why isn't the difference labelled as such?  This is a
difference that makes a difference.
