Redirect vs RedirectMatch

Redirect is supposed to redirect all URLs starting with the string. Since the URL you redirect to started with that string, naturally you instantly redirected again.

RedirectMatch redirects URLs that match a regular expression. You used $ to explicitly match the end of the URL as part of that. That means that “starting with” is not enough.
