Copy Link

"Copy Link" to get URL to a folder in Teams does not always work properly - incorrect link copied
I have had mixed success copying the link of a FOLDER in a teams folder, and pasting it into a post. Since I often remove and upload new files, I don't like to link to individual files in my posts, but rather to the folder that file is in. Sometimes, when I select a folder, then choose "Copy Link" then paste that into a chat and test the link, the link does not take me to the folder, but rather to the top level of the Files in my team. Sometimes, however, it does work and when you click it takes you directly to the folder itself. This seems buggy to me.

Why does Copy Link links break when file is renamed?
If I create a folder XYZ and share it with my colleagues using Copy Link all works fine. I then rename the folder to ABC and everyone's link is now broken. Is this actually expected behaviour!? Why don't folders behave like files which don't break even when you rename them??
