Any reason Twitter just doesn't let you use HTML anchors, and skip this whole mess?

  That would be incredibly unhelpful. It's much more to type, it's yet another thing to sanitize, and most users don't know HTML.

    You just do: visible_text|url , or maybe that whole thing in brackets. It turns it into an anchor. There, was that so hard?

      Or you could just type in the URL. Oh wait, that's exactly what Twitter is doing.
