Quick suspicion is that the ingest. reingest. force_on_ same_marc flag - which is now respected by authority. record_ entry - defeats the 'harmless update to target_record to trigger auto-update' in authority. propagate_ changes( ) (which simply sets DELETED = FALSE, ergo the MARC will be the same).
