To take the original "onelink.to" URL out of the equation -- here's a reduced testcase that might make this a bit clearer, where the new behavior results in not-great UX (users needing to restart their browser). STR: 1. Open this testcase in Firefox on an Android device. 2. Tap the link. 3. Notice the prompt, tap Cancel [just because you're not ready or not yet comfortable, let's say] 4. Now tap the link again. Notice that nothing happens. 5. Reload the site. Tap the link again. Notice that nothing happens. 6. Close and reopen the tab. Tap the link again. Notice that nothing happens.
