I'm curious why the pic is still there somewhere even though the source is gone... is a thumbnail saved on the forum?

Could you elaborate? I'm not sure what you mean.

If, for any reason, I see a domain where root doesn't really display much of anything or just errors (like going here returns a 403), I just block them wholesale. I figure if it's an important domain, it should have something at root.

Or do you mean the click hijacking? So in modern browsers, if you middle click a link, it opens in a new tab. The expando function is toggling instead of treating it like a link. It even fires on a right click.

It doesn't open in a new tab because it's an expando. Try clicking the link normally.

Tbh I don't see people blocking it at all. If they do, they'll unblock it when they realise thumbs don't work anymore.

It’s an anchor tag. Overriding default browser behavior without a good requirement is bad. If it seems reasonable to expando it, keep the correct nehavior for the anchor bit put an expando with it.
