wcag 2.4.5 multiple ways

Hi All,

This has bugged me for a while. Under the techniques for wcag 2.4.5, they
note G125, G126 and G185. When I look at all of them, they all seem to be
saying the same thing.

The only slight difference I can see is that G185 seems to be saying that
you need to have links on the home page, G126 sounds like it is for small
sites and G125 just talks about links going to where they say.

I have searched everywhere and can't find rationale for these three, can
anyone fill me in?

Cheers

Lisa
