(Specifically I'm unsure about the 'B' and what you mean by "sub-command
B" in your example(s).)

Waiting for his clarification, I'm thinking that he sees that something
like:

$ input=$(tty) && echo 123456789 | tee $input | grep -o 456 | \

tee $input | read myvar && echo "myvar is $myvar"; input= ; myvar=

123456789
456
myvar is

doesn't work, while of course:

$ input=$(tty) && read myvar < <( echo 123456789 | tee $input | \

grep -o 456 | tee $input ) && echo "myvar is $myvar"; input= ; myvar=

123456789
456
myvar is 456

does work (BTW: here I'm in Bash).
