Issue has been solved!

I found this:

Multiviews

[...]

The effect of MultiViews is as follows: if the server receives a request
for /some/dir/foo, if /some/dir has MultiViews enabled, and
/some/dir/foo does not exist, then the server reads the directory
looking for files named foo.*, and effectively fakes up a type map which
names all those files, assigning them the same media types and content-
encodings it would have if the client had asked for one of them by name.
It then chooses the best match to the client's requirements.

Perhaps it can save some headaches to somebody else...!
