Manual control options over automatic card links

Problem example: When creating a card related to Alloy, a modeling language for describing data structures and a tool for exploring those data structures, I came across two issues:
- Alloy is also the definition of a combination of one or more metals. Automatic linking in the Alloy card itself pointed to the metal definition, not the language/tool in the original context.
- One of the contributors to Alloy was Jonathan Edwards. Not the American preacher and philosopher. However, the American preacher was auto-linked in the document, and doesn't coincide with the context of the tool/language at all.
Problem solution: Allow easier removal and/or modification of auto-linked cards through a simple right click menu.
- Give me the choice to remove the link from the text
- Alternatively, search the existing cards to find a more appropriate one to link
- Allow me the opportunity to give it a URL from a manual google search (or a file) and create a new card from that URL so I know the content matches the parent context.

As a side note, I don't think AI is "there yet" when it comes to making autonomous decisions on linking and tagging. Giving finite control back to the user regarding all decisions made by the LLM platform would be generally regarded as a good, user-centric move.
