This is, in fact, supposed to be working. I will test it thoroughly
and fix it if it's broken.

Intentional, if the subordinate symbol is a boolean rather than a
trit-valued symbol. There is discussion of the reasons for this in
the reference manual.

This is also intentional. In general, when a symbol is changed,
the theorem prover in the runtime has to change all its prerequisites.
What behavior would you prefer?
