Hi Henry,
No, since the mobile usage is completely different and relies on tap, we can't prevent the default action of the link and open the dropdown in case someone actually wants the link to open. Thus the developer should decide himself how to handle the situation and either remove the link on a mobile device, or prevent the default action on click.
