I have read the User's Guide section 2.2 again and I guess you are refering to subsection 2.2.4 (Backup Files from Old LyX Versions).
I am not opening a file from an older version of LyX, but a new one. So that extra file ("newfile1-lyx23.lyx~" in my case) should not be created, at least that's why I understood from the User's Guide.
Even if it is intended, still, feels an undesired result of enabling backups.
