Merge Node Behavior Change?

Self Hosting n8n moved from version 1.69.2 and 1.70.1 to 1.71.2 and 1.76.1
In 1.69.2 and 1.70.1 my merge node would return No output data returned if the if node filtered out data going to input 1 of the node. I have workflows that are not working now in version 1.71.2 and 1.76.1. Is this a planned behavior change? Which versions have the bug? I already know I can change the if node to always output data, but I want to verify the old behavior is the bug first before changing my workflows.
