Comment (by kraftbj):

 Noting a change that happens with this, I believe.

 In WordPress 5.9, `$query = new \WP_User_Query( array( 'fields'  => array(
 'id' ), 'role'    => 'administrator', ) );`

 would return a `results` value that returned `id` lowercase:

 {{{
   ["results":"WP_User_Query":private]=>
   array(1) {
     [0]=>
     object(stdClass)#2379 (1) {
       ["id"]=>
       string(1) "1"
     }
   }
 }}}

 In `trunk`, it returns the same thing with capitalized ID in the response:
 {{{
   ["results":"WP_User_Query":private]=>
   array(1) {
     [0]=>
     object(stdClass)#2470 (1) {
       ["ID"]=>
       string(1) "1"
     }
   }
 }}}

 It may have been a fluke that it returned the matching capitalization and
 on our plugin, we've corrected it, but wanted to note it.
