You are right, but a bad behavior happens with 2.19 too. See:
{
c'\f
\once \offset Y-offset -0.3 DynamicLineSpanner
c'\f
r2
\ottava #1 c''''8 8\ottava #0
r4
\once \offset Y-offset 1 Staff.OttavaBracket
\ottava #1 c''''8 8 \ottava #0
r4
\ottava #1 c''''8\( 8\)\ottava #0
r4
\once \offset Y-offset 1 Staff.OttavaBracket
\ottava #1 c''''8\( 8\)\ottava #0
r4
}
