Problem
Six /best-* URLs return HTTP 404:
These URLs never had blog posts. Their /blog/ counterparts already return 410 Gone.
Solution
Add these 6 slugs to a new
DEAD_BEST_SLUGSconstant and modify the/best-*handler in middleware to return__GONE__(410) for these URLs.This ensures clean de-indexing by search engines, matching the behavior already applied to their /blog/ counterparts.
Testing
After deployment, these URLs should return HTTP 410 instead of 404.
