Description of change
This is a backport of #3516 and #6998
Originally it was decided to not land #3516 into v4.x as it is semver minor. I would like to ping @nodejs/lts to reconsider as it would appear that the behavior change is accurate to the documentation. Further #6998 also makes a fix based on the documentation that relies on #3516
It may turn out that we do not wish to make a subtle change like this, especially if it can break people in prod. As such I will be running citgm against this to see if there are any obvious failures. If citgm + ci are both green I think we should consider backporting. It is inline with our documentation and will make subtle behavior equivalent in v4 and v6.
