OK. Thanks.

But there would be nothing to indicate the change to tlmgr itself? That
is, the user would have to know the remote package had changed, correct?

I wondered more about the names of directories etc. since some of the
documentation seems to refer to non-existent directories or maybe
differently named ones.
