Doesn't this (at most) make it a bit easier for the destination site to track sources? It's been a couple decades since I did much web log analysis, but the referring URL is part of each log record I believe.
They wouldn't only want to know that a click came from Bluesky. They'd like to know all their referring sites, so the go.bsky.app redirect probably would be of little use unless it encoded something significant not present in the HTTP_REFERER header.
