@puzpuzpuz found this issue in #35110 (comment). Opening a separate PR to make sure this fix can land and be backported quickly, if necessary.

This patch also changes a few comments and definitions to make the necessary conditions easier to understand.

The actual effect of this bias is small, but the mere existence of bias defeats the purpose of this function.

Refs: #34600

The asan failure seems related to #36779 and is unrelated to this change.
