You found three files that have the sort of bugs I was worried about. The examples of ibuf-menu.el and allout.el (and, to a lesser extent, of indent.el) show that the lack of complaints about problems using a certain command in a macro is no proof it doesn't misuse interactive-p. The other commands that use it may indeed be correct. But we have no evidence about it, except from checking their code.
