An "extension" is a Windows filesystem concept.

Although most web servers by *default* map URLs to files on the server of
the same name, most can be configured differently. Strictly speaking, a
web server could be written that didn't even understand the concept of a
"file". (Of course, it would have to be running on an OS which was
similarly file-free.)
