Could you elaborate on the 'no doubtedness' of this statement?

Are you saying that the Jews immediately recognized that baptism was the new 'token' of the covenant? Are you assuming that there was some further teaching to this effect by Peter that is not recorded? It would seem to me that there would need to be some explaining done especially in light of the 'token' now being offered to females.

I am willing to accept your conclusion, but I don't understand how you can claim that there is 'no doubt'.
