Oh yeah, as far as Britannia's concerned, Lelouch is presumed dead as a casualty from the first war, huh? Totally forgot about that.
Well, the breaking of bond thing is merely conjecture on the fan's part so it may or may not be accurate. Perhaps he did it precisely because he didn't know? After all, Suzaku's a third party in that scene and he probably assumed that as a third party, he'd identify Lelouch with his Zero persona more. The fact that Lelouch /is/ Zero is known to only a very select few anyway so everyone else would still only know Zero as the masked terrorist kind of facilitates this theory, I think.
