This has been working the other way up until now right?
At Google scale redirecting requests to ccTLD versions uses up plenty of resources and bandwidth:
Get request to .com (like from urlbar searches)
GeoIP lookup or cookie check
Redirect to ccTLD
Much of this is then repeated on the ccTLD.
This change should decrease latency for users (no redirect, no extra DNS lookups, no extra TLS handshake) and enhance caching of resources.
