It is nonsense, based on the assumption that if access is forbidden and the attacker "hence" knows the item is there and "probably" can be read one way or the other - and that is the nonsense, unless you keep your secrets in the filename, and not the file itself.
So, you're trading this tiny advantage for some serious trouble in debugging; can it find the file, or is it just acting like it can't find it?

Basically good security is when you tell nothing to the user. Like you do not tell one who tries to break in your site that what part of the identification was wrong, the same way you do not tell someone nothing about resources, who not authorized to do such a request on the first place... Bang him with 403, if one is legitimate, one will contact the proper way to ask for what one want...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Contrarywise, why not send 403 for both?

I have no beef with that.

Kylie Jenner 'sooo over' Snapchat - and shares tumble - BBC News[^]
Do-Nothing celebrity tweets negatively about a company, and 1.3 BEEELION is wiped off the value of that company.
This is an indictment both of celebrity culture and of the underlying uselessness of these tech giants and their crapplications.

I've never used Snapchat and never will. Oops, there goes another $1B of worthless valuation.
Darn. I wish I had that kind of influence over social media shares. I could make a fortune shorting stocks everywhere!

I was just going to ask that same question.
I was also gonna ask, WTF is snap chat???
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.

Stock value is such a bogas thing. the 1.3 loss is of its potential dollar value. It is not worth nothing until sold.
As soon as you have converted your dollars to stocks, you have 0 dollars and only the potential of the stocks.
Hell you can be frozen out of selling stocks for a year. So for a year you have changed 100 dollars into 0 dollars, with the hope that in 1 year time the potential sell value of the stock is higher then when you traded.
Hell most paper notes are worthless, they just say the bank will honor the 10.
Those banks in Italy using parmasan cheess as collatoral have the right idea. You go bust, we still have a good chance of selling the cheess. but Stock, or even building value, nah.
