But isn't the "URL:" field in remotes file meant to be usable with push and pull? Why is it misleading to put a value that is more plausible (I believe "'one' in the current directory" is another repository and the intent is that the old .git/remotes/origin setup lets you fetch from and push to that repository) there?

I do not think you are creating a quux repository to be pushed into and fetched from with this change. Placing 'quux' in the "URL:" field feels a lot more misleading to me. What am I missing?
