I don't think that particular example is a good one since the whole

be exact about the example then we should give a more realistic one,
like using scp. Unfortunately, there is no secure-remote-move command,
so doing the above with scp would resend the whole file 3 times. I think
it's better to write a script...

The problem is that most people do copy the stuff straight out of the documentation. And for those that do write a separate script, there are still a lot of possibilities to get it wrong.

There are only about a handful of transportation protocols appearing in practice, so it would be very helpful to provide carefully reviewed scripts or recipes for these.
