An example might illustrate, in your example your can only set the link
color and not its background but say you set your site all 25 pages with
magenta background and you get the crazy idea to make your links hot
pink. After you finish and sober up, you realize, 'damn thats Pug ugly!'
which is more work and code extensive changeing the body tag on all 25 page

<body text=white background=magenta link=red vlink=hotpink>
or changing 1 stylesheet

BODY { color: white; background-color: magenta; }
A:link {color: red; }
A:visited{color: hotpink; }

Some folks are just not impressed when links rescale and cause the page
to reflow and jitter like a squirrel on crack! (actually news reference)

One could get the impression that you have been pushing your site rather
aggressively
