`player.twitch.tv` URLs require an unnecessary redirect

[Felanbird]

Back in 2020 we were required to add &parent=twitch.tv to these URLs as they stopped working without it, sometime after this Twitch changed the scheme. While our version of the URL has continued to work, Twitch could stop offering us the redirect and we'll end up with broken URLs again. Also i'm sick of seeing the redirect

wrong (what we do): https://player.twitch.tv/?parent=twitch.tv&channel=pajlada correct: https://player.twitch.tv/?channel=pajlada&parent=twitch.tv

We talked about this years ago in chat, and IIRC pajlada wanted all of these to be handled in a singular way, so that should be done instead of just changing the existing 3 separate URLs

Is there actually any redirect happening here?

curl -I -X GET https://player.twitch.tv/?parent=twitch.tv&channel=pajlada

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

seems like the query params are just sorted by client-side js for whatever reason
