But it's... not a bug. Using a pound/hashtag symbol creates a tag. If you want to link to a specific post, that post has its own URL that you can copy. Or if you just want to denote a post without linking, you can just type "213". Creating a tag also doesn't interfere with understanding your message.
EDIT: Let me test one thing
test 1:
https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/31519458-post214.html
test 2:
#214
test 3:
#214
OK, so even if you type "#214" and link it to a specific post, that post link will override the tag link.
