Rebound and text-changing effects

If a spell with rebound is cast from the hand, and is affected by a text-changing effect, will that effect apply to the recast version? Does the source of the text-change matter? Does the source of the rebound matter? In particular, are there any differences between:

Andy casts Nomads' Assembly and Nora responds with Sleight of Mind naming white->blue

Andy casts an overloaded Mizzium Mortars withCast Through Time on the battlefield under his control.

The recast copy will not be affected.

When a spell with rebound resolves, it is exiled as the last part of resolution. It therefore becomes a completely new object. When it's cast again the next turn, the new spell has nothing to do with the original one.

The new spell will therefore not be affected by any effects affecting the original one, be it text-changing effects (Sleight of Mind) or additional costs paid for the original spell (overload).
