I totally agree with this, and also don't like using 'more info' for
link text. However I work in a commercial environment where there is a
separation between us technical folk who do the coding and the clients
and designers who come up with the interface design. As a compromise
solution, where I have no control over the design or text that appears
on the page I use title text as a backup for accessibility and SEO.

Whether this is the best compromise or not, is open to discussion of
course.
