Comment (by xitromedia):

 id did not find that rule in the documentation to not change the
 'tax_query' parameter 'include_children'. what sense does it make if it
 must not be changed manually ?

 but anyway....and only theoretically....i think the way i wanted to go by
 modifying the 'tax_query' should not harm in the state of 'pre_get_posts',
 if it is restricted to a specific category posts-query.
 but this cannot work as expected because parse_tax_query() checks
 'tax_query' although it never gets it (see my first post).
 because of that any individual setting to 'include_children' - no matter
 whether done by me or by WP - will get lost/set to default i think.
