add hierarchy parent to post url implications

Hi, I wanted to ask about url structure implications of using this plugin.

I am using this plugin on my website to add hierarchy parent to posts.

For my post using this plugin feature, I notice, for example both https://www.mydomain.com/parent-post/child-post/ and https://www.mydomain.com/child-post/ works.

I was not expecting https://www.mydomain.com/child-post/ to work, or I was at least expecting it to redirect to https://www.mydomain.com/parent-post/child-post/ .

Is this the expected behavior when using this plugin?

In another example, for pages on my website using default wordpress hierarchy parent function, for example, https://www.mydomain.com/parent-page/child-page/ , when I visit, https://www.mydomain.com/child-page/ , the page redirects back to https://www.mydomain.com/parent-page/child-page/

This is the behavior I was expecting from my https://www.mydomain.com/child-post/ url.

My SEO plugin shows https://www.mydomain.com/parent-post/child-post/ as the canonical for https://www.mydomain.com/child-post/ . So I know there shouldn’t be duplicate content issues, from an SEO standpoint.

I simply wanted to ask if there are any negative implications for this url behavior?

The plugin works great, so thank you for creating and sharing it!
