Exactly.

I keep a handful pseudo worktrees around (created with git-new-workdir on
top of a single repository) for quick patch test and build purposes.  I do
not push into them but pushing into a non-bare repository and checking out
the same branch twice in such a setup share exactly the same issue, and I
keep their HEADs all detached for exactly the same reason.
