What "works" means is still debatable. Is it a goal to get users to the 
download quickly, or are other things equally or more important?

Also, we don't really have the resources to do studies on these things, 
do we? So when you say that it's obviously this way and someone else 
says it's obviously that way, we're back to opinions.

Also, to reiterate, a more noticeable download button is not off the 
table. I pulled back all style changes in that PR to focus on the 
functionality first (which I kinda gave up on by now, too, because it 
turned out to be more difficult than I had hoped).
