Using search console? Read this important tip.

So I'm updating my search console entries for www.ukbitcoinblog.com and www.mandolinmonday.com and I noticed that google is saying it's a redirect and not indexing the site.
I discovered that if you create a new property without the www. e.g. https://ukbitcoinblog.com google seems much more happy to use it in search console.

From a technical perspective I would not expect the www to be a redirect, but in fact a A record in the DNS record (ignore that if you don't understand). I've asked support and they said this method does in fact increase search engine indexing of your site... just maybe not in search console.
Update
Confirmed by WA support.
