As huub pointed out, most remote stuff is about actually getting something recorded at all, without the device crashing halfway through the show.
Once we've made sure we actually can record something, we can start to think about how we want it to sound.

The "right" way in remote recording is the way that has a useable result. That means some kind of redundancy - using a backup recorder, bringing more mics and stands than you think you'll need, and WAY more microphone cables than you think you'll need.
Having a plan is nice, having a backup plan is better.
