My understanding is that a permanent redirect would be telling the client (and 
any other clients getting cached results from an intermediary) to now stop 
using the original endpoint in perpetuity for all cases. I don’t think that is 
appropriate (in the general case) for an endpoint with request processing 
business logic behind it, since that logic may change over time.
