I'm generally against unnecessary web complexity, but I don't understand how anyone can paint Lynx a hero for randomly ignoring anchor tags.
I embrace progressive enhancement where possible, all of my blogs/sites will load and function without Javascript. I'm not going to serve alternative HTML in a scenario like this. There has to be a give and take towards Lynx supporting objectively valid pure HTML content.
It wouldn't violate any of Lynx's pure-text principles to parse modern HTML correctly.
