Keep the address

The web is at its best when a thought has somewhere dependable to live.

A stable address is a small promise: the title may sharpen, the sentences may improve, and the surrounding site may change, but the path remains useful.

That promise matters to readers, feeds, links, search indexes, and your future self.

A practical rule

Choose the public path deliberately. Preserve old paths as aliases. Treat identity as part of the writing rather than an implementation detail.
