Since you started the pile-on...having nothing be the visual indicator that something is a link is a terrible design decision. Are readers expected to run their mouse over the body of the text to haphazardly find which words are links?

This comment made me go back and play hunt-the-link :( Not a fun game, totally agree what an awful design. I don't like the strikethrough on hover either!
To be fair, there are no text links in that article (except "Pedro Amado", which, indeed, has no visual indication that there's anything special with it).
My point exactly...you missed:
> For more information on inflection points, have a __read here__
If I hadn't seen that sentence, and thought, "what's here?", I wouldn't have even guessed that there were any links in the article.
