Obviously not.
It IS the intention in Squeak to make it easy to make fundamental changes (and therefore to get in trouble), but it would be easy in your case to have warned you if your definition came from a browser in which the pre-existing definition was not visible.
(Someone else out there in Squeak-Land might supply just such a cautionary check if we close our eyes and wish real hard ;-)
