Seems you at least realized how serious it is. Even if you cannot code the "proper" solution, could you please make a complete table of all possible situations and the expected returns? With complete I mean including all combinations of rules, triggers, deferred constraints and the like. Or do you at least see now where in the discussion we got stuck? It doesn't help to cry for a quick hack that fixes your particular problem. That only leads to the situation that someday we have a final fix that changes the behavior for your case again and then you cry again and ask us not to break backwards compatibility.
