Except that it's not just 'a link' is it? It's billions of miles of copper, fibre optics, routers, switches, media converters, legal agreements, large buildings, nuclear power stations...

And nothing of that matters to the person writing the content or the person reading it - which is why it's beautiful.

This is only because that app is already on your device. And I am pretty sure the majority of Chrome, Opera of Firefox users did download an app.

The point is that you don't need an app specific for that data repository.

There was a time when you needed a different application to connect to each publisher, or each content type. You may be too young to remember that.
