GC links versioned?

Dear team,

i was trying out the Global configuration concepts majorly in links aspect like working of links in GC Context.
i see in docu, mentioning that links are versioned, what do we mean by that.

In GC context, i have 2 DNG Streams and linked artifact 11 (DNG Stream 1) to Artifact 22 (DNG Stream2) using satisfies link type via Changeset (DNG Stream1 artifact satisfies DNG Stream2 artifacts)

1.Now by keeping DNG Stream 1 Fixed and changed DNG Stream 2 to older baseline (here Artifact 22 content was old) (where ->
  observations: Link is visible but link validity changed to suspect. my question is at first place
why links are still kept because there are no more same versions?
2. same way, if bring some changes to Artifact 22 and add to context with DNG Stream 1 Fixed.
 observeation: still link is visible but link validit changed to suspect

what exactly we mean links are versioned here
thanks

Whether a link is versioned or not depends on whether the resource that owns and stores the link is versioned. You should also remember that in most cases, links are to the concept resource and not to a specific version.

Consider a test case TC (version 1) that currently has no validates requirement links. A user makes a change to that test case, adding a link to some requirement REQ. That will be done in the context of a global configuration. A new version of the test case TC-2 will be created and include a link to the concept URI of REQ. That link gets resolved to a specific version of REQ based on the contribution hierarchy of the context global configuration. For example, in a global stream, it might reference REQ-2, but in an older global baseline, it might reference REQ-1.
