Why aren't the links in the body text... links? Really screws with accessibility.

  Totally agree. Very annoying.

  They are for me, chrome desktop.

  It seems that they only work properly if JavaScript is enabled...

    …which is only fitting.

  Because they are not actually links (as in `<a>` elements) but they are `<i>` elements (italics) that are formatted differently and also opens a new tab when you click on it. But they are not common links, which is stupid. Hovering the "link" doesn't display the URL in the browser, right-clicking doesn't understand it's a link (because it's not), you can't open it in a new window as the creator of these "links" didn't consider that behavior (shift+click) and they are not accessible in the least. TLDR: author re-implemented their own links, with more drawbacks than they could imagine
