Good idea! I think it’s worth mentioning as well the current link’s styles wouldn’t pass accessibility guidelines, as there isn’t enough contrast between the link color and surrounding text color, and the choice of words doesn’t make the link very identifiable either.
This would need to remain an `<a>` tag so it has the best possible semantics – I think styling this like a button would make this as easily identifiable as possible, but from the perspective of the accessibility issues it would be enough to add an underline to the link style and make sure the link text makes sense without context.
