:-) Been there, done that, worn the tee shirt. :-( Old age? Fading eyesight? Well, those are my excuses and I'm sticking to them. ;-)
I hear that!
But I don't think we can blame the software designers for our failing faculties. ;-)
It would have been a bit more obvious had it been above the right pane of the little window. Then the mental connection would have been a lot more automatic. I have done some gui's on older machines that had far fewer colors available, and there is a huge difference in the perception of "user friendly" when seemingly tiny details like that are attended to.
I am fighting with water in the basement at the same time, and I'll admit that is distracting. I threw money at it this evening, and will have to throw some more at it over the next couple days to get what I brought home installed.

Yes. Now I wish I could get some sleep. 3AM local and I'm rolling and tossing, trying to find a comfy position for my arthritic back yet. Had to get up, and I've heard that a good geek, up in the middle of the night for whatever reason, is obligated to check his email before going back to bed. Part of the geek contract I've heard. :) Like you, I'll stick to it. ;-)
