Ah, good to hear it wasn't intentional. =) I realized shortly after posting that comment that I'm a terrible hypocrite, cause we're actually guilty of the same thing in a couple places on our platform. Granted, we repeat the footer links in the sidebar, but still, it's something I'd like to fix.
Anyway, good work on the library, and thanks for open sourcing it!
We usually try to remove the footer e.g. on our posts page https://artsy.net/posts/featured
