I see the point, and I agree... but I don't know if it will work RTD redirects to whatever we configure. In proj.org it is going directly to 9.4 (current latest release). So every 6 months it points to something different. Telling in robots.txt that the full page has a different URL is not good for seo and history (if I understand correctly how it works, that I am not sure).
Maybe the solution is that proj.org default be "stable" and not "9.4".
