Right, accessibility folks! Please could you all weigh in on this!
For good or bad, a common design practice is to make links (goes to a different page) look like buttons. Assuming the underlying code is correct (uses instead of ) so assistive technology announces it correctly, is it OK that the "link" is not underlined?
I'd be grateful for further reading links and/or shouty opinions! 😃

PS: in any case, the role of the element should always follow its function (rather than the visual design).
