>> With links, though, you can check the domain they go to is trusted before following them.
<< Although the domain is trusted, the page could be bad. It happens.
>>It's been a while since I scanned a QR code, but they just go, don't they? That's what bothers me. I want to see the destination before travelling.
<< Yes- but there are some apps that ask/check first before opening in-browser. But that's just the aforementioned scenario with extra steps.

NFC tags (which I see as being QR afjacent) just open.
