Corey: is this an issue in 12+ only because the code is different? Or did the test simply not fail in 11-?

While I hope the former, from your comment [1] on the ticket I cannot deduce which it is.

[1] "It appears that the issue I thought applied to 1.8/11 does not exist. So this issue applies to 12+ only."
