Relative links vs scheme-less links

I was browsing in Bombadillo and just noticed something:
If I follow a link without a scheme, it just assumes it's a relative
link. This works fine when it actually is a relative link, but what
about this?

=> makeworld.gq/gemlog/ Link to gemlog

As humans, most of the time we would assume that to be a scheme-less
link, but Bombadillo will actually try and resolve that as a relative
link. And why not? It very well could be.

I am just writing these wrong, and scheme-less links should always start
with `//`? The spec says "a scheme of gemini:// is implied", so I assumed
having those would be redundant.
