Comment (by JoelStransky):

 @swissspidy thanks for the reply but the line you reference only works for
 a single post type. I believe the goal of a method named
 `get_post_templates` would be to return every '''post''' template
 available throughout the theme. This functions as expected in the post
 metabox because it doesn't use get_post_templates(). I uses
 get_page_templates() because all it needs is the list for a single post
 type.

 Right now the only way to get all '''post''' templates from child and
 parent is to use `get_post_types()` and loop over the results calling
 `get_page_templates(null, $post_type)` on each one.
