4 months ago This ticket should be taken with similar caution as #18502. In a comment there, @laflannery explained that we have some outstanding issues in order to be able to reliably convert telephone numbers to the web component.
Before we can pick up and work this ticket, we need to carefully consider exactly how each of the links are constructed and our technical approach to converting them to web components, if possible.
