The GNU Emacs manual covers this corner case in at least a little more detail. See https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/url/Proxies.html

As per your post, correlated with the EMACS manual, if you want the "host" mit.edu to not use the proxy, you would need to add it to no_proxy (so no_proxy=.mit.edu,mit.edu).

I'd really like to see this bug fixed as our local proxy server actually denies requests to proxy internally, so without changing proxy vars (that we've been using for over a decade), wget to our internal websites just doesn't work.
