--- Comment #1 from MF-Warburg <[email protected]> ---
This doesn't seem like a logical change to me. Linking to a redirect which
redirects to the original page again is probably hardly ever done on purpose,
but happens by accident, e.g. because the user presumes an article on a related
topic to exist - which then turns out to be described in the article the user
is editing, hence the redirect - , or because articles might be have been
merged.

The solution clearly should be that users fix such links/redirects, not to
confuse people by seemingly random bolding of words.

Additionally, if links to redirects to the current page remain clickable
redirects, it's easier to still access the ?redirect=no page in order to change
it into a real article, when desired.
