And yet, there is currently no better solution I'm aware of, so that is what they must do.

"Just let anybody click and open anything" is not a solution, either.

It's not a solution, it's the problem statement.

If the solution you're suggesting is not a solution, then the solution I suggested (which is a solution) seems to be the best one we have at the moment.

It seems we're in violent agreement: neither of us think that "just let anybody click and open anything" is a solution.

That leaves us with the robust solution cited earlier: "Don't click on sketchy links".
