Because when you don't specify, the URL function uses the extension of the
current request. More specifically URL does this:
if extension is None and r.extension != 'html':
extension = r.extension
Extension is None by default if you don't specify. However later URL also
does this:
if '.' in function:
function, extension = function.rsplit('.', 1)
So another way to declare the extension you want (instead of passing it to
URL with extension=) is to just put it in your function name, which is what
you did.
