To share with just one person, press the share button and enter the person's name - then hit share and you're done.
The "get a link" is there for a more convenient way to be able to get access to the file, regardless if the audience is an individual or a group.
The main difference is that if you choose to share the file individually and that person wants someone else to access it - they have to come back to you to share it to that other person. Whereas the "get a link" method means anyone can simply pass the link around to others without involving you.

See my post above with screenshot. I did do that, I chose 'share' picked one person (in my domain) and when I look at the file info in OD4B I see that it's a link that 'anyone' (if they get the link) can edit. What caused that behavior?
