Thanks for the link, Kyle! Yes, that’s exactly what’s happening here and what I suspected because PC Reservation does not require the Koha password in order to create a session, so I figured Koha was reacting to that and counting it as a failed login attempt.
But yes, despite the note in the bug, I can confirm that is happening on our instance that is using 18.11.10. I tested it this morning several times.

If anyone has any tips or feedback, I'd really appreciate it! We use SIP to authenticate patrons who wish to create a computer session via PC Reservation. We also have the Koha FailedLoginAttempts preference set so that an account is locked after X failed login attempts. But I'm noticing that the borrowers.login_attempts field is increased by 1 each time a user logs on to our public computers even if the login is successful on the first attempt. That is, when I create a computer session successfully, the login_attempts count in the borrowers table is increased regardless. I noticed this after doing maintenance on several computers that required me to log in via PC Reservation. When I went to log in to the staff client later, my account had been locked out. Has anyone else experienced this?
