What I dislike about footnotes like that is that they pollute the browser history. If you want to leave the page but clicked on a few footnotes and their backlinks, you have to go “back” through all of them.

Thank you so much for posting gwern’s sidenote article! I want to use sidenotes on my site and this was a very valuable resource!

Back button usually come with an unfoldable list of jump points.

I am more ennoyed by how the jump points are turned into a useless feature by so many javascript out there which load new content without impacting the browsing history.
