Comment:

 From the [https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/best-practices/coding-
 standards/accessibility-coding-standards/#labeling accessibility coding
 standards section] in the handbook:

 > Don’t introduce new title attributes to convey information. Use aria-
 label when you need to provide an alternate label and `.screen-reader-
 text` if you’re appending additional data.

 I don't see how we'd need alternate labels for these links as they are
 self-explanatory in my opinion.
