No, indeed that was the objective.

This was a side effect of the checks we have in place, it was not expected.

Technically speaking the math should be possible to figure out to
enable HT40 or not based on peer channels and although that was
assumed the user reported it not allowing HT40 due to the peer
channels not allowing HT40. I took your patch as an assumption that
was not possible.
