Then describe the whole thing or don't?

And that's kind of missing my point. If that pin group isn't related
to any device, the pin muxing will not be changed. So that group, in
itself, has strictly no effect.

Moreover, you don't need a pin group in the first place to mux pins in
GPIOs, the GPIO API will make sure that is the case when you request
it.

Yes, because the API does it, not your change
