Confusing, possibly. But correct, even though redundant. But I'd agree
that it should only be used if no other options are set.

"noauto,x-systemd.automount" would work but is it what the OP wants?
He could've used autofs if he wanted an automount and didn't know
about systemd's integrated automount feature.

It's surprising that the Arch wiki doesn't mention startup.

In the same way that the wait-online unit ensures that the nfs shares
are unmounted before the network is taken down, it ensures that the
network is up before the nfs shares are mounted.
