I agree with your interpretation. I have not tried it myself,
but I think you can just send the next message without waiting
for ReadyForQuery.

The problem is that this may not make sense: for example, if you
send Describe immediately after Parse, it may be that the Parse
fails and the Describe does something you did not intend.
