Yes, let's please be very clear about files vs pages. This is a findamental disctinction both for MediaWiki internally, as well as for Commons editors.
This distinction makes little sense to casual visitors, and perhaps should go away on the technical side at some point, but we are quite far from that. For now, when discussing this with developers and editors, we have to be very clear about whether we mean files or pages. So. geo-shapes and tabular data on commons are pages. They have a content-model, but no mime type. Their page title does have an "extension", like files do, which determines the content-model (because the extension that defines the content model says so). But their are not media files, and cannot be treated as such.
