Hi there, thanks for the ticket!

Appears to be introduced in [49731] / #45114 for WordPress 5.6, setting the version accordingly.

Sorry, it does work! I was just hitting it at wrong time. I was testing it using dump(tracy debugger):

bdump($post->post_title);
bdump($post_before->post_title);

That's when the values were all the same but when I did a check like so it returned different values!

if($post->post_title !== $post_before->post_title){
 bdump($post->post_title);
 bdump($post_before->post_title);
}
else {
 bdump('same title');
}

Looks like this can be closed.
