Agreed. Should be fixed first.

And this is what the Tramp manual says. I've grepped the archives, and
it seems I've added this sentence after a discussion in the thread
starting at 
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2019-10/msg00129.html>.
There's an interesting contribution from Stefan Monnier, but all what he
has said is out of my scope. I don't know what to do with completion
styles.

Best regards, Michael.
