If the tool reports it as an error, that would be pedantic.
If it displays a warning, that's helpful.

1.4.4 gives a heck of a lot of programmatic context work arounds to
technically pass the WCAG requirement, including:

Putting the links in different paragraphs or sentences.

I can say click "here". And click "here". This passes WCAG,
technically, but is awful usability.

But
Click "here" or "here". would be a fail.
