Why is this IG written with links to references at the bottom of the page, rather than directly linking from the referncing text? E.g. section 3.1 reads "This section provides guidance that goes beyond NIST 800-63A for its practical application in healthcare settings. ..." and lower on the page is "References: ... NIST 800-63-3A..." with the reference as a link. Why not provide the link in the initial mention of the document? Managing references is also error prone and confusing: Some of the reference are after section 3.2 and labelled references, while others are after section 3.3 and only preceded by a footnote number (which can be confused with other numbering on the page), without clear reason why the two styles are used.

Section 3 is used only as an example of these confusing approaches. The whole IG should be reviewed, and a consistent approach taken.
