Tried that; the fermion link still becomes a footnote.
Same with divs. Presumably if I put enough stuff between the link and the body eventually it would fail the heuristic.

On your typical ereader, you may only get one/none "back". It is very easy to move forward, and go from:
fermion -> boson -> Kozuch Theory -> fiber bundle
But if you pressed back, you may go from fiber bundle -> Kozuch Theory. If you press back again, you would jump back to the device's Library/Home Screen.

On Kindle you get many backs, haven't yet run into a limit.
This particular book uses some jargon, some real, some invented, and had a glossary at the back.
Kindle lets you select any text and search within the book, gives you a list of hit links and few lines of text. I found myself having to page to the end of the hits (some words used many times so several pages of hits) to remind me of the defn.
So I moved the glossary to the front so the glossary links were always the first search hits. Then I noticed there were "See" references in the glossary and coded them as links. Then went whole hog and coded less explicit cross refs; thus running into the issue at hand.
Works fairly well, even with the footnote glitch. Can live with that if the cost of breaking this auto-footnote thing is excessive complication of the code; at least for personal use.
