the advantage is.. that you stay on the page were you were..
example:
you are on
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=930702
and you have the flags in the header on every page...
you will after clickin the flag be on:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...30702&langid=4
with the hard linked method you will be back on the index.php
thats the difference... but in principle both methods work
