Updating side-effects of trying to rename an observable throughout a script

[meurigbeynon]

I decided that manpos was just a little two sexist for lift users, and went about changing all references from manpos to personpos. I've yet to recover the original state of the script, even though I think I have now eliminated all occurrences of manpos etc. It's as if the updates are taking time to percolate through, and values that I expect to be defined are gradually getting to be as I poke around. Right now,
I'm still getting problems recovering the label for the lift user - which as you know is stored in their circular heads.

Would it be surprising that

personlabel is Text(labels, personpos["x"]-adj/2-adj2*labels#, _view_picture_height-personpos["y"]-adj/2);

shows up in the inspector like this:

@ is Text("12", {32, 264}["x"]-14/2-2*"12"#, 652.208-{32, 264}["y"]-14/2);

Can there be a good reason why the LHS isn't defined?

PS I have since recovered the value of personlabel after redefining 'labels'. There still remains a mysteriously missing person around though.

PPS .. and finally, by dint of doing Run(force) for yet another time, everything is back in place. Could autiocalc have had anything to do with this? I didn't check its status.

Note: need to make an example that is reproducible to test it.
