The simple fact is href is an attribute and you
can't repeat attributes in an element. So you
get stuck with multiple names with URI values,
or you build an element type declaration with
contained elements with atts with URI values.
We do get hung up in our syntax, don't we?
But we build multiway links all the time. We
call them treeviews, comboboxes, dropdown
lists, cascading menus, frames and so on. If you
think about it, HTML is just the GUI inside
the document instead of a document inside
a GUI. And it's not fun to move from
GUI to GUI without an abstract set of types.

I've read *every* link
that has been pointed out in this thread and all I see after various red
herrings are marked off is a desire to cling to "href" while adding a handful
of other similarly limited attributes on the same element as that on which the
href appears. If there is any more nuance that I'm missing, then I can change
my mind when sundry mysterious documents finally appear. Until then, I'm
going on what I can see and read. Period.
