That's being generous. I do not think it was even designed---at
least, the interaction with remote-tracking is ill thought out,
but I think the updating of remote-tracking by pretending to have
turned around and fetched immediately after it has done its thing
came much later than multiple URLs for push. A remote with multiple
URLs without any remote-tracking (i.e. "push only remote") behaves
semi-sensibly.

I agree but only if the listed ones are separate ones. If the URLs
are separate paths to reach the same remote (e.g. https:// and ssh://
going to the same place), the current definition would make more sense.
