Yes, but <href is missing the 'a' part.

Pointless for some, useful for others. I've been navigating long pages
in my phone browser, and 'back to top' is a lot quicker than scrolling
per page (no home button on the phone).
I'd rather have 10 'to top' links than 3 Google ads in the sidebar,
it's all a matter of preference.
