They should rather be transparent to constraining, e.g. immutability
constraint must propagate from the target subtype to the pointer subtype.
Compare it with renaming. When you rename an immutable object the result is
immutable.

There is Implicit_Dereference aspect introduced in Ada 2012, but in such a
strange way that made it impossible to define on Holder itself, rather on
another type obtained from Holder using a function! What was the gain?

There is no difference, compare it with by-reference parameters. The
program shall not be written to exploit by-reference vs. by-value. Smart
pointer is a substitute for what it points to.

If you are happy with such mess, then what is wrong with X.Element +
Y.Element?
