Middle clicks on links are also pretty broken. Sometimes they do open the link in a new tab, something they open the link in the same tab, sometimes they do nothing.
As someone who use mainly workstations with a at-least-three-buttons mouse, I feel web browsing is getting increasingly annoying.
Agreed, I'm not sure why Google is assuming everyone browsing their site will do so on mobile devices. Overriding the right/middle-click is hardly ever good UX design, and I'm wondering how they even managed to make it so inconsistent across tiles.
