Comment (by jonoaldersonwp):

 Any equity which the site might have in the eyes of search engines is
 being actively syphoned off to the wrong website. That makes the site and
 its pages less visible and discoverable, which means that we get fewer
 attendees, fewer contributors, and less market share vs content management
 systems which get the bare basic fundamentals of SEO right.

 There's a really great plugin which we could use, which handles all of
 this sort of thing correctly and gracefully :)
