That should be warned about in the data sheet. Internal EMC problems
tend to be rare, which is good, but because they are rare, there
should be warnings if they can occur.

And examples can be even more strange: we had DC-DC converter modules
failing to work properly because one of the converter's power pins
feeding an internal linear regulator picked up noise from the same
converter.

I agree. One particular point is keeping a trace connected to an
inverting input very short, even if that means including a
low-value 'stopper' resistor close to the chip. That point has
quasi-infinite sensitivity but infinitesimal impedance only within
the op-amp pass band. Above the pass-band, it is an antenna
connected to a diode. And yes, it can pick up power rail noise.

Hi Ken and the group,
Many analog circuits, as well as the analog parts of large ICs that
you mention, do have response to GHz noise even 1 MHz unity gain
opamps! Low frequency op amps can generate a DC offset on their
inputs from GHz digital noise or radio signals, a common problem
for the last 45 years since I first observed it. Power supply
rejection of op amps goes to pot pretty quickly with frequency as
well. High frequency effects therefore are important even to low
speed analog circuits. In some ways, one must lay out the low
frequency analog circuit using microwave techniques to keep RF
noise at bay. The circuit features must be keep really small,,
including the bypass capacitors being kept extremely close (< 100
mils) to the op amp.
45 years ago, faced with opamp problems from RF noise I developed
some techniques for keeping the op amps happy. I discuss these in
my upcoming course.
