I don't know too much about irrelevance, but this doesn't look good.
Consider the following code:
data D : Set where
c : .Bool → D
irr : c true ≡ c false
irr = refl
proj : D → Bool
proj (c x) = x
bad : proj (c true) ≡ proj (c false)
bad = cong proj irr
As it happens the last definition does not type check, so perhaps we
cannot use this bug to produce an inconsistency, but it is at least
clear that the type system is broken in some way.
