Ok, I see your point. As long as the concept/canonical URIs for all entities are being published as http:// URIs there is no other way than following the 301 redirect. The core of the problem is the current way of publishing http:// URIs either through the sparql endpoint or directly in the data (by using .rdf like extension or content negotiation). The https vs http problem is a common issue in the Linked Data domain since the introduction of https (Schema.org suffers from similar problems). Linked Data URIs are supposed to be stable over a long time. Just switching to https and block redirection can and will break numerous applications build on resolving the WD entities. In order to address this issue more clearly I would recommend to open a new issue for requesting the switch to canonical https URIs. I don't know the backend and the community well enough to suggest an approach to solve this problem. Leaving this discussion hidden under the title of current issue doesn't help its visibility.
