Which is why I used "unnecessary".

> There will be no “unnecessary” re-reads, however:

Yes, there could be: the ideal solution of the conundrum with using
Copy, Delete, and Rename commands in the Dired buffer would be to
re-read the directory, instead of leaving the modified files near
point.  But the price is the need to re-read remote directories, and
we want to avoid that price, if possible.

That is what I alluded to, nothing else.
