Lynx has still had remote code execution CVEs in the past. It's probably a smaller attack surface than a regular browser, but far from nonexistent.

It's been over a decade since there was an RCE for Lynx. The difference between the attack surface of Lynx compared to a regular browser is several magnitudes. No code is safe, but giving someone grief over following a link using Lynx is security theater at its worst.
