Comment:

 It looks like the underlying code has changed since this was opened.

 The [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/wp-
 includes/post.php?annotate=blame#L4208 code still uses a block list of
 statuses, but now dynamically gathers the list of statuses to look for]
 using `get_post_stati()` to search for statuses with `date_floating` set
 to `true`. I ''think'' the addition of the `date_floating` (see
 [46252]/#39953) flag should solve the original problem so long as the
 custom status supplies a `true` value to override the default one of
 `null`.

 With this in mind, and the fact that no one else has reported or worked on
 this one in 11+ years, I'm going to close this one out as a `wontfix`. If
 anyone disagrees, discussion can always continue on closed tickets, and
 this can be reopened if someone feels strongly enough to invest time in
 exploring further.
