Currently Quicklinks doesn't link directly to the login page as JavaScript is used to link to the login page. The login page itself has no URL because HTML5 pushstates (or even adding #login to the URL) are apparently too much to ask for.

Also: wow

Thank you Firefox Debugger: https://onesourcesss.abdn.ac.uk/SelfService/Pages/secure/login.aspx

So they have a wrapper with a banner and nothing useful and every page has the same URL, then they use AJAX to load in each (full) page. That's...that's like someone heard about AJAX then used it to get none of the benefits of AJAX while actually adding downsides.
