When icons are the only element inside a link, the link will not contain any text and will fail WCAG 2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context) Level A. The purpose of a <title> element inside the <svg> element is to provide a short description of the graphic and will not be displayed by the browser other than, possibly, as a tooltip.
