[4.1 Alpha 3] HTTPS (or HTTP) protocol enforced when options[vw_protocol] is set to 0 (do not force)

In VW 4.1 Alpha (XF2.1 version) Site Config options, Wiki Base URL http/https is randomly enforced regardless of the "Force Request Protocol" setting (particularly for Special:SpecialPages). Is this as designed?

Non-wiki XenForo routes do not enforce http/https.

I randomly experienced certain wiki pages force either http/https. Pages such as the wiki index (index.php?wiki) and Special:SpecialPages (index.php?wiki/&title=Special:SpecialPages). This aggravates the disappearing wiki links issue (vw_cache) from #5639.

I cannot currently reproduce this issue on my test board (it is possible that the issue is already fixed on my build due to other fixes).

That said, I used to have a problem like this, where random pages were randomly enforced to https, while my nginx configuration had a line like:

Code:

add_header Strict-Transport-Security max-age=15768000;

After removing that line I no longer had issues and was more consistently able to browse either http or https without redirects.
