A question about roles.

Hello
I have noticed in looking at some core that GADT type constructors are
often applied with a representational role. These constructors are
explicitly marked as nominal.
Is this information just ignored at a Core level or is this invalid core?
Looking at the code a see that we if we downgrade a TyConAppCo we
unconditionally change it to a representational role after changing its
children. I think this is where it is introduced.
