OK, now we are flushing out some reasons. Where could I read more
about your search engine reasoning? Why penalize? What if I had three
domain names all pointing to the same place? Two are for mispellings

more about this?
Not sure what you mean by "rip the headers off..."
google.com &
www.google.com take me to the same place ->
