Well, then POSIX looses effectively a portable way to make sure to fully
unset the state a variable, as any implementation may add its own
exceptions to this.

The tool's description in POSIX even is "unset - unset values and
attributes of variables and functions", and I think it's natural to expect
it to do just that (unless of course the standard provides exceptions, as
in readonly)
