It's all explained in the readme. Because, as you say, it happens sometimes that hard telecined (or pure video) material is encoded as progressive (although very rarely), it has that base covered. It reads off of the TFF/RFF flags shown in the D2V:

flags -
Controls how much of the info from the d2v file is used when the "d2v" parameter is set.
Possible options:
0 - Check the d2v file for illegal transitions and set the order parameter if it is not already manually set. Also, pass on rff flag duplicate info to tdecimate.
1 - Same as 0, plus use the trf flags for field matching in film sections (sections where the trf flags follow the 012301... pattern)
4 - Same as 1, but d2v matches are checked for being combed. If a d2v match is detected as combed then tfm uses its own matching routine for that frame.


4 is the default. So, even if there are interlaced frames when there shouldn't be, it'll still be IVTC'd.

And TFM doesn't use Tdeint as its default post-processor.
As hello_hello mentioned in the previous post (which you don't see, right?), the 'motion-adaptive cubic' to which you referred (from the TFM manual) would be TDeint's Type 0. Because TDeint slightly predates TIVTC, I suppose there's a chance tritical slightly improved on it to be used as the TFM deinterlacer, but they'd be pretty much the same thing.
