What I am trying to clarify is that a remote branch will never be the

a remote branch as start-point, then the branch must be explicitly

Because I misread your updated documentation, somehow I thought you were
talking about "checkout -b". Sorry for getting confused (and perhaps
giving a confusing answer).
There are two concepts you seem to be confused about: <start-point> and
branch tracking.
I indeed confused these concepts and I think your patch makes the
documentation clearer here
