Comment (by engelen):

 Interesting, I didn't know that... For reference:
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/23282. It's funny to see that this
 issue never came up in that discussion, even though `has_shortcode` was an
 important part of it.

 However, even though your intention was to make it simply check for a
 shortcode in a piece of content, I'm not sure that your intention was the
 correct behaviour for `has_shortcode`. It seems to me that it currently
 works as would be expected from `has_shortcode`, checking only for
 unnested shortcodes. An interesting discussion...

 Besides all that, focusing on moving ahead with this issue: can we agree
 that, regardless whether this is a bug or not, `$recursive` should be
 `false` by default to maintain backwards compatibility?
