Ragost doesn't properly lose all abilities
Step 1. Play Ragost, Deft Gastronaut and any other artifact
Step 2. Play Unable to Scream on Ragost
Step 3. Despite Ragost losing all abilities, other artifacts are still foods, and can still be sacrificed for 3 life.
I'm playing on PC, and after Ragost loses all abilities then it should not be able to turn artifacts into food.
I also tested Witness Protection, in case it was just a problem with Unable to Scream but it also had the same problem. It seems to be a problem with all effects that cause Ragost to lose its abilities.

I love how many niche interactions this game has. Thanks for the clarification, and my apologies for yet another bug report that is really just a judge call!

Congratulations, you found another card in an evergrowing list of cards, where this is CORRECT. Because these cards grant a card (sub)type, their effects start applying in layer 4, before they lose the ability generating the effect in layer 6. And due to rule 613.6, once an effect starts to apply it gets to apply fully, no matter what.
In essence, making a permanent that grants a card (sub)type and other things lose its abilities, does not shut them down. Perfectly according to the rules.
