This is actually by design.

Trussing them supercedes bind hands and bind legs (it actually strips those affects)

Truss is so much more powerful than bind hands and bind legs and is harder to undo that it replaces both of them. In other words...once you truss them, their hands and legs are no longer individually bound.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
