As I understand it, this is one of those things where people who
learned HTML in the 90s love target=_blank, but Web 9.0 hipsters now
all deplore target=_blank, for good reasons probably, and write
articles in markdown decrying the use.  Unfortunately, I'm one of
those 90s luddites. So...

Does anybody have strong opinions one way or another about this? I'm
happy to get rid of target=_blank if others care about this too.
