Comment (by khushdoms):

 Thanks for the feedback!

 You make a good point about these links being identifiable through their
 context and placement. I agree that they behave more like navigation
 elements rather than inline text links.

 My initial thought was based on accessibility scanning tools, which
 flagged the lack of underline as a potential issue. However, considering
 real user experience, the links may still be sufficiently distinguishable.

 Perhaps a middle-ground approach could be to improve visibility on
 hover/focus states instead of enforcing underline by default.

 Happy to explore this further or prepare a patch based on the preferred
 direction.
