2/3 to 1/3 if you're counting categories, but you haven't presented any
evidence that the number of people in each category is the same.

Besides which, I think that people with a high degree of exposure to the
web tend to look for the things that look like buttons or links. The
near-universal sign for links on the web is underlining (and typically
an alternate color). Looking at the repo.or.cz file lists, I see that
none of the files is highlighted but the directories are. What am I to
guess (either by intuition or by "figuring it out") except that there is
some difference between clicking the two? I think we are failing a
consistency test.
