I had the same surprise. Which raises an interesting question: does that count as "breaking the back button"?
Theoretically, no: the back button is working as expected. At the same time, it was a significantly worse experience for me because it took a lot longer to go back to the "parent" page (HN).

One thing surprised me after I clicked around, I did not expect each station to become a separate browser history entry.
