Comment:

 Yes you could always evade FunDep consistency like that -- see #10675 at
 "bogus"; or #15632 for a cut-down example.

 Well done for getting that inconsistency into the same constraint!

 There's nothing stopping you putting a bunch of constraints that are
 together unsatisfiable. That would usually mean you couldn't use `f`.
