The headers' emphasis is not due to the Visual Editor. We used to put all headers in bold by hand, until someone made it so every header was automatically put in bold. We tried to remove all the emphasis, but we missed some. Same thing goes for the links. It's about the order in which the emphasis is added. If you add emphasis before linking, you get that. If you add it afterward, it comes out right. It's also why, sometimes, emphasis is added to punctuation and the space(s) after it. Users are lazy and double click the word(s), which, by default, also selects the punctuation and the space(s) after it.
