There's a difference for humans.  A button is a command, and generally

can be found, and should correspond to a noun.  If you mix them up, you

Whilst I had some fuzzy concept of this in my head (and long ago gave up using 
buttons for links), the verb/noun comparison makes this much clearer for me and 
makes perfect sense.  Kudos to David for turning on that little light bulb in my 
head.
