why is a placeholder needed?

because you can have # in urls (for pages' fragments) like so for example:

'https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/request/#background',

so I am using the placeholders to completely remove the links temporarily, apply the hashtags replacement and then I put back the links when it is ok to do so.

Alternatively I could have changed the hashtag replacement code to be smarter and check that the hashtag is not part of a url, but I felt like that could become quite complex and error prone, so I thought I could just use this placeholder strategy instead

what do you think?
