I agree with that and in Germany there's a consensus to not use them (and remove them when one encounters them) but I think that there are some countries where mappers have taken great care to keep their subarea links complete and correct, and of course we don't want to ruin it for them. So yes, remove them if you are familiar with the mapping style in the area you're editing and they are indeed unusual there, but leave them in place if it looks like the standard operating procedure in the area.
