I was around back then. There were many button sizes, and I did not say those weren't real, existing buttons: they were common navigational aids on homepages. But they are not _web buttons_ as anybody would interpret them today. They are just buttons. The GP and the link talk specifically about _web buttons_.

I was around then as well but I'm not going to rely on the fickleness of 30 year old memories to be more authoritative than contemporaneous manuscripts.

The fact that you see buttons made exclusively for the web and existing exclusively on the Web and covering early web culture as not "web buttons" is an interesting distinction.

I mean you do you. Language is what we make it. I just wonder where such a perception comes from
