If you think it is convenient, you could add more debug lines to see what happens when searching logic for the area to add/remove the link.

PS: I don't want to forget to mention that I am very grateful for the time you are taking to do this.

It was a simple bug that I overlooked repeatedly: for most areafix operations, I was treating areas.ini as a areas.bbs file (format) and vice versa. Now fixed.
