It's pretty clear to me as it is, but maybe we can write it differently.
Like:

  Without a disambiguating `--`, Git makes a reasonable guess. If it
  cannot guess (because your request is ambiguous), then it will error
  out.

  ok, i'll give this another try, given that there are two independent
points to be made here:

1) even without the "--", git can generally parse the command and do
the right thing (or do a *valid* thing, given its heuristics)

2) occasionally, without the "--", the command is really and truly
ambiguous, at which point git will fail and tell you to disambiguate

  not the wording i will use, but can we agree that those are the two
points to be made here?

Yep, I think so.
