For a solver that is designed to cope with thousands of clauses, I would be surprised if it suffered such a regression that it could fail for the trivial problems we present to it. I’m not aware of an occasion when any of the 2400+ occurrences have ever failed.

I would also question the claim that they are unusually unreadable. The attached list of theorems tends to omit a lot of routine reasoning and therefore lists the critical three or four facts required for the proof.
