there are many links on the page that directs to the same destination. For example, if you click on learn it directs to learn page. Now if you click icon of learn, it too directs to learn page. Similarly, if you click on more, it too directs to learn page.

You can't remove the ones from the nav-bar, but the icon ones should be okay to remove since the UI doesn't indicate that they are clickable. You can also remove the ones in the description like more and hundreds of packages etc.
