Chrome rotates the cursor to the default value instead of the pointer when links hang after the mouseup event, which returns false

Question

Maybe I missed something because this thing is strange. Here is the code:

$(document).ready(function() { $(document).mouseup(function(){ return false; }); }) 

 <a href="">qagq3gq343</a> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"> </script> 

It just returns false in the mouseup event. But what he does in Chrome is that when hovering over links after the mouseup event, the default cursor is not a pointer.

You can play it above by running the fragment and then clicking within the fragment not on the link, and then move the cursor on the link.

Any ideas?

It seems that the only solution is css one:

 a, a:hover, a:active, a:visited { cursor: pointer !important; }
