I see unknown url scheme gopher and trying to open gopher. If unknown
it should not even try opening it.

But gopher and gemini are well known protocols and Emacs is one of its
browsers. Elpher package recognizes WWW and redirects to eww, so eww
should be able to redirect to something else such as elpher or
external gopher and gemini browsers.
