I agree with you about the convention - I'll put it back in even though 
it is redundant redundant.

I had thought of one case where it might be annoying, and that would be 
for a screen reader user, who would alway have to hear the two identical 
links read at the top of every page. But I'm not sure how annoying that 
would be and I've never checked with anyone about this ;)
