Hi, Andrew. Are you certain? I created a new blank profile and added three tasks, each of which has three second-level subtasks, and each of them contains three third-level subtasks. I marked one second-level tasks as goal:week. The display showed four tasks marked with red "!" - the second level task I had set for goal, and the three third-level tasks that are subtasks of the goal task. However it is not true that the three third level tasks inherited the goal from their second level parent. The three third level tasks despite their red "!" show in task properties as goal:none. My conclusion is that the goal itself is not inherited but that the red "!" is set for tasks that have a weekly goal or tasks that live in a hierarchy below a task with weekly goal (with no intermediary tasks with goals other than none and week)..
In further testing I created a new subtask under the goal task. Like the three other subtasks it shows the red "!" but the task properties showed goal:none. For the other part, I agree with you that I said it backwards. The Goalmaster filter will pass only those tasks that are actually set to the specified goal, with no consideration of inheritance. The Goal filter on the other hand, will pass any task that has the specified goal setting, as well as the entire branch of subtasks under that task, but excluding any subtask that has a different goal set (other than goal:none) and excluding any branch of subtasks under the excluded task.
