I do not see why just the button «Download» instead of the button
«Download v1.4.0» would lead to people downloading something else than
the link, i.e., the webpage named <https://guix.gnu.org/en/download/>.

Yes, for sure! Release makes sense. I do not think someone is
advocating for removing the release itself. :-)
From my understanding, the patch is about discoverability of the latest
Download webpage; this one: <https://guix.gnu.org/en/download/latest/>.
I am still missing why from the Standard download webpage
<https://guix.gnu.org/en/download/>, the mention to the Latest download
webpage would be detrimental or confusing.
