I'm not sure, if there is a bug at all. According to man git-push:
The <pushurl> is used for pushes only. It is optional and defaults to
<url>.
(From the section REMOTES -> Named remote in configuration file)
the command:
git remote add foo git@foo-fetch.org/some.git
will set "remote.foo.url" to "git@foo-fetch.org". Subsequently, fetch and push
will use git@foo-fetch.org as url.
Fetch will use this url, because "remote.foo.url" explicitly sets this. push
will use it in absence of a "remote.foo.pushurl".
Now, we're adding a push-url:
git remote set-url --add --push foo git@foo-push.org/some.git
Relevant parts of config are now looking like:
[remote "foo"]
url = git@foo-fetch.org/some.git
pushurl = git@foo-push.org/some.git
Since, pushurl is now given explicitly, git push will use that one (and only
that one).
If we add another push-url now,
git remote set-url --add --push foo git@foo-push-also.org/some.git
the next git-push will push to foo-push.org and foo-push-also.org.
Now, using --set-url --delete on both of these urls restores the original
state: only "remote.foo.url" is set; meaning implicitly pushurl defaults to
url again.
To me this is exactly what Jardel was observing:

Or am I missing something here?
Might be that the "bug" actually is that the expectation was
git remote add foo git@foo-fetch.org/some.git
should have created a config like:
[remote "foo"]
url = git@foo-fetch.org/some.git
pushurl = git@foo-fetch.org/some.git
since that is what "git remote -v" reports.
If that is the case, we might want to amend the output of 'git remote -v' with
the information that a pushurl is not explicitly given and thus defaults to
url.
