I think your title and description are actually better than #6753 and I appreciate you reporting this. Also, when we fix #6753 we'll see the link here, and it'll still be useful. No problem at all!
If a non-member of a project tries to open a link to a file in a project, they get the following message, which is very confusing and misleading:
Instead, the message should prompt to user to request access somehow. Perhaps something like
Possibly with a button allowing them to request access that will send a message to the project owner. (This is what some people expect from Microsoft, Google, etc. shared documents.)
Use Case I sent an email out to a group of collaborators with a link to a file in the project, but forgot to add a couple as collaborators, or added them with a different email address/account (common if one has a couple of CoCalc accounts that they don't use frequently - i.e. former students who were part of a class, hence using their institutional email, but later who sign up with gmail etc.)
