Wow, so it's quite hard to find how to report a bug against the wayback machine. (My duckduckgo-fu might not be strong enough to get around WBM's success.) I hope this is the (an) appropriate place.
Going to this link I get "The Wayback Machine has not archived that URL. This page is not available on the web because of server error".
Expectation
I assume it never makes sense to redundantly archive the WBM itself. Whatever component modifies the links should refrain from doing so when the URL starts with "https://web.archive.org/web/".
Additionally, a nice improvement would be if the page that displays whether there is an archived version available would give a better explaination when called with such a redundant URL. (Feel free to split this part into a separate component and CC me.)
Stakeholders
If this is not the correct place to report this bug, please tell me where is - and keep me informed whether you forwarded the report or I should do so myself.
Thank you for keeping archive.org awesome !

** Problem **
I archived today a ycombinator post, and read it through WBM:
https://web.archive.org/web/20220903091448/https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27553274
One of the comments (the fourth one) itself contains a WBM link. It is rendered visually correctly, but the link points to
https://web.archive.org/web/20220903091448/http://web.archive.org/web/20150301234243/blog.ronnyegner-consulting.de/2014/12/10/parity-based-redundancy-raid56triple-parity-and-beyond-on-btrfs-and-mdadm-dec-2014/
(notice the redundancy).
