By forcing a redirect to a neutered version, the goal is to reduce page breakage while avoiding the need to create an exception filter for some sites ([example](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/issues/1081#issuecomment-165501960)). Note that these two experimental filters use the `important` filter option, so they will bypass any existing exception filters.
