That's just a name I came up with to describe the phenomenon I'm seeing here.

Unfortunately not. I can see my app in the lsdump and the path points to the
network share but purging the LS database doesn't have any effect. macOS
still loads the old version of my app, not the latest one on the share. Only
by rebooting or by re-copying the bundle's executable can I force macOS to
use the latest copy.
