Searching URL of notice from remote system sometimes confused to user search?

Hi, I'm currently running develop (2.2.50-852-g7f078716-develop) with one cherry-pick 60b46540

I'm trying to search for a status from another pleroma system running 2.2.2, but the search is confused about what it's trying to receive, and doesn't pull in the status.

The status in question is: https://moc.d-x-b.com/notice/A3qJoFl4DCVzV9aZsG

I do have a few pages of debug logs - the most interesting thing I can see is:

Feb 02 20:33:55 Multibox1 mycrowd[3069]: [debug] Fetching object https://moc.d-x-b.com/notice/A3qJoFl4DCVzV9aZsG via AP
Feb 02 20:33:55 Multibox1 mycrowd[3069]: [debug] Could not decode user at fetch https://moc.d-x-b.com/notice/A3qJoFl4DCVzV9aZsG, "Object has been deleted"

I get the same result from another instance running 2.2.2, pleroma.com can't find the status either, just returns users it thinks must be best match.

So, wondering how this might happen, it seems to be an issue.
