It's not superfluous noise at all. As a user of the World Wide Web I personally find "click here" to be easy to quickly identify and understand. When I see the underlined "click here" I quickly know exactly what I need to do.


And you don't find links with the underlined name of where they lead to be "easy to quickly identify and understand"?

Are you saying that you need links to say "click here" in order to understand what to do?

Then how did you manage to navigate to this discussion and press the reply link, which did not say "click here"?

Do you not think this looks like superfluous noise at all?
