My understanding is that the Org 9.3 changes were about moving away from the percent-encoding that Org used to avoid "[" and "]" in the link. It looks like the URL you're showing above should be left as is because it is the usual URL percent-encoding, without the pre-9.3 Org percent-encoding on top.
