My very similar pet peeve is about websites that use `onclick` handlers and similar to implement navigation. Just use a damn anchor tag, which gets you correct link behavior for free:

* works with middle click for new tab

* integrates with accessibility devices

* works with right click + open in new window or similar options

* etc. etc. etc.

If it's notionally navigation, don't use javascript soup: use a link.
