Comment (by simonpj):

 Can you make a new ticket, about this issue (it's nothing to do with
 #10528), and explain there why you want the change.

 I see no compelling reason why we can't switch off rules and inlinings in
 the RHS just as we do in the LHS.  We'd just need to carefully document
 the reason for doing so, and having a ticket to refer to is good.

 I don't really want to mess with 7.10 on this.... I don't think there
 would be knock on effects, but I would bet my life on it
