Yes, I have done the 'setpref' thingy on My Key.  I suspect that from
this thread countless Others have or are doing so.  My Point is that
until My Key _with_ advertised Preferences is Imported/Incorporated into
the Sender's Keyring then My 'advertised' Preferences mean nothing.

In My Experience Nobody 'refreshes' Keys often enough.  If it's in the
Keyring and 'works' then it ain't Broke and there is no reason to fix
it.  So, FWIW, it means _nothing_ to change the preferences on Your Key
/unless/ the Correspondent Updates their copy of Your Public Key.

Unless GnuPG has become clairvoyant there is NO method that will detect
changes made to One's preferences until a 'fresh' Copy of the Public Key
is Imported.  <SIGH>
