The only reason was for this:
<a href="#">A cool link <a href="#">via</a></a>. I thought it to be logically correct.
Maybe my logic is flawed but it makes no logical sense to me.
That aside, it's invalid HTML (in fact "illegal" - see http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/links.html#h-12.2.2)
Even if it were legal/valid and it did what you intend in all browsers, where should it take me if I clicked on "via"? How does the browser know which of the two links I meant to click on?
If "via" leads somewhere other than "a cool link", I'd list them side by side (preferably with a separator other than a space).
Cool link <a href="#">here</a> or <a href="#">there</a> ...
