I've taken the initiative to post https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/22227 with 2.27.0.dev3, because it's been quite a while since dev2
Please review 🙂
(Not meaning to step on MOTW toes, but I want https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/22160 to land in a relatively small dev release. I'm concerned that that might break things, and thus would prefer making narrowing down the cause to be easy.)
