Asking because I don't know much about this. When you say this:
Usually the content type [...] is detected automatically.
When is not detected? I want to better understand the scenarios where the reader needs to use this explicit content type definition.

When is not detected?

If you have some time to dig into this, could you please check the exact code behavior so we can updat the documentation accordingly? Thanks a lot!
