perhaps, but we should rely on the measured observations on how it performs with redirects vs. without them.

Probably not for everybody but there is something else: 

For all people using one transaction per request kind of architectures...

Having the redirect means that your app needs 2 transactions per action with all the overhead and complications that it could mean*.

*for example the data your app readed fresh in the first transaction has no use on the second complicating the app (if consistency is mandatory it probably requires a re-read). Depending on how the app deals with that problem, that could be a hidden cost (paid in latency in the magnitude of I/O and in development costs)
