Again, Tramp has no chance to determine this in advance. Whether new
credentials are required interactively, or not, is decided only after
Tramp has started to open a new connection.
Therefore, Tramp maps this decision to "shall I open a new connection,
or not". It does not make sense to start with the ping-pong of opening a
new connection, and to stop half the way due to missing credentials.
