Makes sense. I am going ahead of what is currently on main.

I do not like this idea. There is also org-link-abbrev-alist-local and
potentially other variables to be introduced in future. We should not
rely too much on internal workings of ol.el.

A better approach could be using org-link-expand-abbrev. It is an API
function and should be forward-compatible.

Best,
