Search for PDF files wrongly finds Web Links

I think that this is not correct.

If I try to find that Web Link from the Advanced Search as "Webpage", it fails:

If an advanced search for all items that have fulltext PDFs attached to it leads to including attachments that are links only - somewhat defeats the purpose.
