I think that this is a side-effect of this semantically fragile macro. Indeed, the 'rsub' and 'rsup' primitives are very special in that they are glued to the corresponding radicals. You are not intended to create user-macros with this kind of behaviour. If you do (as you did), then the typesetting might be OK, but you are likely to run into various kinds of other problems (like the one you mention here).
So I consider this kind of usage of TeXmacs to be somewhat inproper and likely to trigger minor bugs.
