And of course, there is always the question of some other rogue pages
referencing to "developers-2". We (I) have been caught before with renaming
a page and then hearing people complaints of broken links.

I don't have access to the backend, so I'm just guessing here, but my
understanding is that one page is redirected to the other using HTTP
status code 301 "Moved Permanently".

HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 301 OK

My suggestion was that we use the simpler name as the canonical one by
switching the order of redirects. If executed properly, I do not
believe this would not break any links. (Perhaps a more interesting
question is why we used 301 instead of 302 or 307, as the name
"developers-2" sounds like a re-write or test/addendum page, but I
digress outside the scope of this bug... :-).

In any case, a minor issue. If it's easy for the IT team to fix,
please do so. If there are various impediments to a quick resolution,
please make a note and punt long :-)
