Well, not entirely; the redirect is strictly not part of HSTS. Without a
redirect we give visitors an option; if you come in via http, fine... If
you come in via https with a browser that understands HSTS, then it's
https from that moment on.

And once we're all used to that, we can add the redirect ;-)
