azure beastbinder ability glitched with equipments
I attacked my opponent with an azure beastbinder. They had a 1/1 hero token attached to a machinist's arsenal, giving the token +6/+6, making it a 7/7. I used the beastbinder's ability on the machinist's arsenal which should reduce the hero token's power and toughness back to 1/1 but it didn't.

Yet another example of type change vs. ability losing. Type change ALWAYS wins. Because layers.
Type changes happen in layer 4, ability losing in layer 6, so type changes always happen first. And due to rule 613.6, once an effect starts to apply, it gets to apply fully, even if the ability creating the effect is lost before the parts of the effect happening in later layers are applied.
In short, not a bug.
-------
613.6. If an effect should be applied in different layers and/or sublayers, the parts of the effect each
apply in their appropriate ones. If an effect starts to apply in one layer and/or sublayer, it will
continue to be applied to the same set of objects in each other applicable layer and/or sublayer, even
if the ability generating the effect is removed during this process.
