Yes, your examples are more realistic, I agree, but they don't provide for
semantic memetic variation : if the original semantics were doubled-sided,
then the syntactical expansion into "He will love soon" fixes one semantic.
"He's willing love into his life" fixes another, and hence they become
diluted into two separate systems of thinking, whereas in the beginning
there was a semantic ambiguity.
And your example is more realistic: it happens with more probability.
Witness the hopelessly distorted views of some christians (may you burn in hell
for your blasphemy, Yash !). Do they apply what they are supposed to believe
in ?
Some of them do, fortunately, the others autocontradict.

I've read that in "Sciences Humaines" a french magazine about psychology,
philosphy,
etc, very nice magazines. It's empirically observed. There must be an english
equivalent to this magazine. I'll try to find out.
If you have net access, have a search for "discrimination" or something like
that.
How do you like my memeseX definitions ?
