The new default link color (#63a7de) (and the hover color #89c2eb) on the footer’s white background appears to fall below WCAG AA contrast for normal-sized text (Site uses bg-white). This is an accessibility regression for the legal/copyright links. Consider using a darker blue (or a theme token) that meets contrast requirements, and avoid making the hover state even lower-contrast than the default.

[&_a:hover]:underline applies to all anchors in this container, including the OpenJS logo link (the <a> wrapping the image). That will likely add an underline on hover under the logo image as well. If the intent is to underline only text links, scope the selector to the legal-links section (e.g., a wrapper around the paragraphs) or explicitly opt the logo link out of underlining.
