Criticism

That would mean fetching an idea to compute the path for each hashtag. Overhead?

Criticism of #1775Criticized2

Fetching the idea is not necessary if the feature is backwards compatible. Can still just use /ideas/123.

Criticism of #1769Criticized1

As noted in #1777, fetching the idea actually helps. Well worth the overhead.

Criticism of #1771

Seems like minor overhead. It’s not like there are tons of user-generated hashtags everywhere.

Criticism of #1769

This actually helps to prevent rendering links with IDs that don’t point to any existing idea.
