Wait...I see my issue. Duh! The where clause is applied after the CTE is evaluated

I'm under the impression that the predicate filter is applied before the analytic is evaluated. Are you suggesting that I have this wrong -- the analytic is evaluated and then the filter is applied?

Maybe, but you haven't provided enough information to let anyone else reproduce the behavior.
Personally I'm suspicious that because your lag() calls are over
partition by p.logical_partition_key, p.txt order by indx
but then you filter by
where logical_partition_key='TEST_DATA' and usage_text='F(T61)(EXPORT)';
that the lag() functions are seeing some rows that don't show up in the final output. (This'd require that some output rows from "parse" share txt values but not usage_text values, but that certainly looks like it's possible.) So IMO you have not actually demonstrated that there is any bug.
