It is happening because value (boolean flag for capability) is being ouputted instead of capability.

Great find @aravindajith! It appears this was introduced in [45926].

I've checked the patch, and it does resolve the issue. See the latest screenshot. I'm going to move this to the 5.3.1 milestone hoping it gets picked up.
