If you then try and backfollow from the ID of the
document that you do have to find links
to that document, you will not get anything:
Normally the links to a document aren't the only thing
that's interesting, the links to any of the stuff in the
document and any document that might be construed as
a "version" of the document are also interesting, modulo
filters.
You are correct that the current behavior is correct,
the cases where one actually wants to retrieve links
to a document directly, as opposed to all documents
containing the stuff of the document, will be rare.
However, if pressed, I'm sure I could come up with an example
where we would actually use the backfollow from the ID
directly.
