I was just making a reproducible case for you.

The usual case is: for FFAP users: Let's say the cursor is sitting on
top of a URL. Or say a file full of URLs.

Now there is no way to expand filenames!

Sure, one could remember to do C-u C-x C-f etc.

But that isn't natural.

What is natural is if we clean up the whole minibuffer, then FFAP should
reset its thinking.

Or, at least not prompt us with the "lie" of "File or URL..." when it is
already in "URL expansion only mode"...
