Mathematica expression evaluation question

Why does this show apparently conflicting results? I know how to work around this. I'm just trying here to understand the issue and how it generalizes across Mathematica. Image and notebook inserted because image is easier to read.

My guess is that since x appears in both sides of

x >= -Subscript[OverBar[x], C] + Subscript[OverBar[x], T]

that the condition never resolves to True. So, for example,

With[
  {x = 0},
  x >= -Subscript[OverBar[x], C] + Subscript[OverBar[x], T]]

gives

0 >= -Subscript[OverBar[0], C] + Subscript[OverBar[0], T]

which is not True.
