   @zachleat Is it at least an interactable div? That's not good, but it's better than a div with hover state wrapping around an inline anchor tag with the actual interactivity so that clicking on part of the button doesn't actually trigger the functionality

      @bensaufley yes but it changes font-weight on hover

         @zachleat Ooh nice I hope that reflows text in an interesting and unpredictable way

            @bensaufley it’s unpredictable so I couldn’t say for sure

         I remember seeing similar on twitter before, then reading an article that explained why. Something to do with cross platform normalisation iirc.

         It might have been this article
