While searching the mailing list for posts about feedback in the titele bar, I found also this: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/nano-devel/2018-03/msg00040.html. The arrows and the percentage are a rather limited and non-visual way of showing where the cursor is in in a file. A real scrollbar, like fte has, would be... more useful, more understandable, does not require interpreting a percentage. And the length of the "thing" shows how much of the file is being shown on the screen.
