Sure, it happened to work before and it works now with your "well-behaved"
client, which is what I would expect. It's just added insurance in
situations where a client is deliberately trying to downgrade encryption

Normally, yes, but that flag changes the behavior to prefer the server's
cipher ordering. The behavior is documented in the "Cipher Suite
Preference" section of
