Yeah, that's clear now. As I already answered to Junio in another thread, my question was only about insteadOf, not pushInsteadOf behavior. 
The behavior of pushInsteadOf is completely clear from the thread and from t5516-fetch-push.sh
Sorry for making it not clear enough. 

Anyway, thanks for giving a one more explanation and example on how url, pushUrl and insteadOf configs work, it is always useful to go though it once again.
