WebAIM: Redundant link alert in Wave

Hi Everyone,

I am a little confused how Wave alerts for redundant links. Any idea
regarding the same?

Do we really need to care much for them? Like a link for 'Shop now' is in
the header and then in the navigation menu list. The second one is often
marked as a redundant link.

If they post some serious accessibility issue (which I don't think in this
case), how should one handle them? And some peculiar cases where these can
be problematic?

Sorry for firing too many questions and thanks for reading the long enough
mail :)

Thanks,
Vaibhav
