We heavily rely on queries and fragments in the URL structure, so it is desired to preserve them even in the redirects. The generated redirect pages try to preserve them with scripts, which take precedence over the original `Refresh` metadata. Non-scripting browsers would continue to work (with no queries and fragments).
