Comment (by hermpheus):

 I can see an argument for changing the test context to ensure that the
 REST API works for non-authenticated users, but I also see an argument
 that it is more important to test that authenticated REST calls work, as
 is necessary for Gutenberg.

 The patch attached above implements the `skip_cron` fix @Clorith outlines
 above to fix the false positive.

 Thanks all.
