BillboardGuis have strange interaction with ScreenGui parent

ISSUE
If a ScreenGui in a PlayerGui contains a BillboardGui within it with an adornee set, it will also appear on screen as well as attached to the object in world (ie, appearing twice). This did not occur previously.

EXCEPTION
This behaviour does not happen if I parent the BillboardGui directly into the PlayerGui or into workspace.

EXPECTATION
The expected behaviour is that the BillboardGui not appear on-screen, and only in the world attached to the adornee.

Notice the top left corner of the screen.

This issue has already been reported to Roblox and engineers have logged the bug into their systems.

Yikes, that post did not describe the issue well enough for me to realize it was related.

In other news, this is a simple repro for the issue. Windows 10 and studio is up-to-date.
