My car leaks oil. So I refill it here and there. This fixes issue with any car maker and does not require action of any other actor.

Yes, it’s a workaround because it doesn’t require anyone to fix the issue.

>it completely solves the issue on any site

It doesn't solve the problem with Instagram links, which in my experience do the following:

1) Open a new browser tab, with no history. 2) Close the original tab, so I can't easily get back to where I was.

It's a work around to them making changes to deliberately change the expected results of pressing "back"
