My only concern is that, even if a redirect is pointless, wouldn't it be even more pointless to remove it? A redirect consumes no database space whatsoever. Unless the redirect has a lot of valid edit history, it's probably better to leave them. Wikipedia has a bit more on redirects here: Redirect#When should we delete a redirect?
