With regards to your issue mention above, you have a couple of option to download a file:

Open file in same window:

<a href="sample.txt" target="_self">Click to Download</a>

Open file in new window:

<a href="sample.txt" target="_blank">Click to Download</a>

Force file download window:
However, if you want to force the file to download, by prompting a download pop-up box (to open or save), then all you need to do is add ‘download’ to the link as seen below:

<a href="sample.txt" download>Click to Download</a>

Therefore, your edited code could look something like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

  <head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
    <script src="script.js"></script>
  </head>

  <body>
    <h3>Instructions</h3>
    <ul>
      <li>Click <a href='sample.txt' target='_blank'>ME</a> (download NOT present) to see page load in new tab then come back to this page</li>
      <li>Click <a href='sample.txt' download='sample.txt'>ME</a> (download PRESENT) to see it downloaded</li>
      <li>Click <a href='sample.txt' download>ME</a> (download NOT present).  Safari forces this link to download</li>
    </ul>
  </body>

</html>

Hope this helps you!

Not really an answer, but after reporting the issue to apple and waiting, we now have Safari 11.1.1 which seems to have resolved the issue, so marking resolved.
