No, there is nothing inconsistent here, at least not with anything to do with
INSERT.  If you take your default linker script, which doesn't use regions,
edit it to add your MEMORY clause before SECTIONS in that script and add the
other parts of your inserted script before .text, then invoke ld using "-dT
edited_script", you'll see similar behaviour.  No INSERT or other scripts
involved.  The bug you're seeing is entirely due to adding a non-default memory
region and then expecting that incrementing dot outside of an output section
statement should affect the current memory region vma.  (Perhaps it should, but
as of today that is unsupported.)
