Hmmm. If true, I wonder if cmd-clicking the top N links into other tabs can be distinguished or if it's harmful for their ranking. Also, does going back cause a reload?

I'd guess that various clicks in a small time frame can be trivially detected and discarded as noise. The vast majority of the users do not use that pattern.

I don't think it causes a reload, but it can also be trivially detected using JavaScript.
