The current behavior is what I would expect. You've turned filetype
detection on, which uses the value of 'rtp' at the time, then you
changed the value of 'rtp'. I would not expect filetype detection
to be using the new value of 'rtp'. The correct way to do that is

set rtp+=~/my
filetype on

If if hurts when you do that, ....
