See #2993 note-16 for motivation.
I have a concern: if a face with same FaceUri but different persistency setting already exists, does nfdc register -P change the persistency setting?
Currently, nfdc register on an existing on-demand face would keep the face as on-demand, rather than changing it to persistent.

Yes, I think it should be changed to permanent. Is there a problem doing so, other than the small inconsistency you pointed out?

I think the register command (only when face is specified as faceURI) should change status to at least persistent.

Is this still relevant after #3866?

In #3866 it was decided that implicit face creation during prefix registration is harmful. Instead, nfdc face create should be the only command that can create faces, while prefix registration command face route add can only use an exiting face.
