Because then you don't have an alt text. People with images off 
(screenreaders, text browsers) will not even see the name of the 
company/web site if the image is missing, unless an alt attribute 
is filled out.
AFAICS, to get the title attribute to be visible, you'd first 
need to see the link to hover over it. In the absence of images, 
I don't think that's likely.

Lynx? What is the link text in Lynx when you use a &nbsp; ?
I just tried it out, no link is showing, nor the title attribute. 
You can't tab to it either, it is skipped in a list of links.
