Surprising, I don't see that locally, and I don't see how that could be
the case.

This is expected. Note, you could serve other file types as well, what
this example was meant to illustrate is how the web-server will set the
mime-type appropriately based on the file type (e.g., serving foo.jpg
with the "image/jpeg" type).
If you only care about Org-mode files, maybe look at example 7.

This makes no sense. The docroot should be a directory.

I've pushed up a small fix to the directory listing which I originally
wrote too quickly last night. If you do want to serve files like this
locally then it is probably worth it to update your web-server install
and try again. If you do update make sure you stop old servers before
starting new ones, e.g., by executing the following.
(mapc #'ws-stop ws-servers)

Sure thing. Sorry if a bug in my hastily written directory listing made
things more confusing than they needed to be.
