See the transcripts below. The behaviour when the fd is 8
is correct and the behaviour when the fd is 10 is wrong.

Description: The GNU Bourne Again SHell
Bash is an sh-compatible command language interpreter that executes
commands read from the standard input or from a file. Bash also
incorporates useful features from the Korn and C shells (ksh and csh).
.
Bash is ultimately intended to be a conformant implementation of the
IEEE POSIX Shell and Tools specification (IEEE Working Group 1003.2).
.
Included in the bash package is the Programmable Completion Code, by
Ian Macdonald.
