Linked Issues: 'is blocked by' and 'blocks' links are reversing, no record of this in history

I have seen this issue happen on multiple tickets. I create a group of tickets (under same epic) and add 'blocks'/'is blocked by' links. EX: A blocks B, A and B block C.

At some point (can't figure out when) the links get reversed so that B blocks A, and C blocks A and B.  If I look at the ticket history I can see the original linking I describe above is there, but see no indication of these 'blocks'/'is blocked by' links being switched. This behavior is frustrating when I spend so much time trying to link tickets correctly and creates confusion when planning work.

Other notes.
1) I also had 'created by' link on the tickets and that link is still correct 
2) When this 'blocks'/'is blocked by' switch occurs in the ticket is switches every ticket in the group, i.e. for a ticket everything that should have 'blocks' links is now 'is blocked by' link and every ticket that should have 'is blocked by' link is now 'blocks' link

There was a bug raised about this on JRACLOUD-69614.

As far as I know, the bug is fixed now from the internal comments.
