Click a link? Where? 99% of the people just Google for stuff and rarely even look at the domain names anymore. They would click a link in Google search results and Google would already filter if it's a car or media company you are looking for.
The only use case where domain name is actually used is when you need to tell someone to go to some website or give them your e-mail over the phone. Especially if it's your website. New TLDs are still fresh and people get confused. If it doesn't end with .com, they want to add .com themselves. You need to spend time and energy explaining - which would take a lot longer than just having an extra word in proper .com domain.
I guess people will get used to new TLDs in time. But that time is yet to come.
