Parse that does but meaning your statement lacks.

Stop wanting that. Problem solved.

That makes more sense, though only because the popular browser still does not
use "hover" color by default. Simply set
:link:hover, :visited:hover { color: red; background: white; }
with the background setting tuned as needed.

It's ugly markup, but apart from text-decoration, there would not be anything
fundamentally wrong _if_ you had tabular data with so many columns that it
pays off to take all the risks caused by font size reduction, in hope of
making the data fit better.

Fine. Stop trying to create problems.

Well, you're wrong, and your question seems to revolve around CSS, not HTML,
so you're in the wrong group. However, the abuse of tables is somewhat of an
HTML issue, and the answer is that you should use <ul> to set up a list of
links.
