The hierarchy system is intented to organize larger ciruits by referencing (or representing) subcircuits with a single symbol. Sourcing light symbols into larger ones is something like inheritance of symbols. There were some discussions on the developers mailing list. IIRC the inheritance does not work in the current gschem version because attributes in the "light" symbols are not accessible by gschem through the heavy symbol layer.
