The only way to create a sub-surface loop by recursive nesting is to
make the main surface (which does not have a role) a sub-surface of any
of its sub-surfaces. All other cases should already be cought.
This change checks for that exact case,
Is it impossible to change the parent of an existing subsurface?
If it is possible then ABC and attempting to change B's parent to C
will produce a loop and not get detected by this test since
get_main_surface(C) is A which is not equal to B.
If this is not possible it seems pretty limiting

Yes.
If this is not possible it seems pretty limiting as clients have to destroy
and recreate surfaces to make some rearrangements.
No, they only have to destroy and
