Comment:

 This ticket was discussed in today's bug scrub.

 Per @hellofromTonya:
 >Because of the change is touching older code, a deep dive into the code's
 commit history is needed. Why? To understand if it's by design, is it the
 root cause, when did the bug first start.

 It would be great to get this into 6.5 Beta 1 to make sure there are no
 unknowns or side-effects.
