I wouldn't assert it without strong evidence. This URL comprehension problem is probably more complex than what people usually think. There are a number of studies about this issue, if you're interested.

Thank you for those! Side question:

I don't have a formal education in CS, but I really enjoy reading papers on programming (languages), architecture, data-engineering and web related things among others, especially when they have a practical focus/impact.

Is there a good way for me to find or rather discover resources like these?

Not sure about filtering for practical focus/impact but https://arxiv.org/ is an amazingly useful and informative repository of papers that you might like. Also google scholar is good, but more general.
