No, it does not.
Would the Working Group please rid itself of its delusion that links are
free-flowing atoms, like candies in a jar, that exist solely unto
themselves and can be infinitely reordered? Links can stand alone but are
also commonly found in sentences and within other contexts. The example
given above is bad writing, but could not be considered inaccessible.
*Obviously* if you listen to or read the *entire sentence* you know
exactly what you're doing when you select the link.
