focus is not being set #16

The focus needs to be set in addition to scrolling to the target. This is important for accessibility and is the default behavior when <a> is used.

You can test this with the free NVDA screen reader (use down arrow after activating the link to hear where the focus is). I found this project was a simple way to do a test with NVDA.
