Enabling this feature flag re-introduces a risk that led to a previous incident. The feature generates hyperlinks that web crawlers can follow, potentially causing excessive calls to the Gemini API and exhausting your quota.

The pull request description mentions that a more permanent fix has been discussed. To prevent a recurrence of the incident, it is strongly recommended to implement this fix before enabling the feature in production. A robust solution would be to add a rel=\"nofollow\" attribute to the generated <a> tags in static/js/apps/explore/follow_up_questions.tsx to instruct crawlers not to follow these links.
