https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/dom.html#interactive-content-2

There, anchor element &quot;a&quot; is listed as interactive content, without any restriction.  but, I don&apos;t see any reason to classify &quot;a&quot; without href attribute as interactive content.
Can we add &quot;(if the href attribute is present)&quot; to &quot;a&quot; there?</thetext>
