What do you mean with 'consider'?
I knew there was the chance that some spells get broken, but I don't
have the time and resources to cast the whole grimoire after each
update. This is what the devel grimoire is intended for.

Already downgraded db.

I don't know why the autofix feature didn't catch your errors (sorcery
version problem?); but it did for others. If a spell just needs to be
recompiled, nothing is broken.
