1) Why are hardlinks _ever_ broken on checking a file in?

ci has always done that, since it may need to change the file and/or make it read-only.

2) especially in in the case when it says "file is unchanged"

The diagnostic could be improved, yes. "file is unchanged" means the revision is unchanged, not that the working file is untouched.
