One other question: Since this is re-using the well-known option name --no-track, should it also get applied to the "git worktree add -b foo dir origin/foo" case, as well, which you pointed out (in the patch 2/3 thread) already DWIMs tracking automatically? (I can easily see someone reporting it as a bug if "git worktree add --no-track -b foo dir origin/foo" does not suppress tracking.)
