So the question boils down to this one: does the
file system also stores creation dates alongside with the link ids
(the nodeID), referring to the links themselves, not the files they

No. As Dave said, hard links are just extra instantiations of one
file. If you need to know when a link was created, etc. then you must
use symbolic links instead.
