Comment (by havahula):

 I can confirm that all those steps are accurate.

 By way of a use-case scenario:
 If you're using the new Attachment Post UI, to create an asset management
 tool with a custom taxonomy as the organizing mechanism, all attachments
 without post parents (unattached) will be correctly added to the selected
 terms. however, if you run a query using get_categories() you must set
 'hide_empty' to false in order to show the attachments, which of course,
 means they're not registering in the 'count' column in term_taxonomy.
