Has this not been the case for a while? I think I've been getting /maps for at least the past year.

Yep. Noticed when I didn't want to enable JS on the whole of Google's domain in μBlock Origin. I switch to another browser for this task alone—especially as some regions have incomplete data for OpenStreetMap

the /maps URL worked for a while, but I never noticed the redirect from maps.google.com (but I wasn't paying attention to that).
