Agreed

But where does that URL come from? It certainly doesn't come as you
stated above from saving the URL from the right click (a) wrong
architecture, (b) wrong file iso vs sha256 (c) presence of build ID

So at last you agree there is a problem! We're getting somewhere :)

Sorry, but I don't read the factory list, so posting a remark like that
without a URL is not very helpful. But I fail to see how it can be a
Firefox issue. The URLs are supplied by opensuse. And even if it is a
Firefox issue, the opensuse devs need to work around it. Don't use HTML
that provokes the issue, if that really is the problem. Just make the
page list the actual URLs in a straightforward text list. Or at worst
detect the problem FF version, add words that explain the problem and
suggest using another browser and point to the bug report.

But having said that, I just tried in chromium and saw the same
problem. So it's not an FF issue.
