It's not switch-to-buffer that moves point, it's
url-http-wait-for-headers-change-function, which is called by
url-http-generic-filter.  Here's the relevant fragment:

    ;; We are still at the beginning of the buffer... must just be
    ;; waiting for a response.
    (url-http-debug "Spinning waiting for headers...")
    (when (eq process-buffer (current-buffer))
      (goto-char (point-max)))))  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
