Heist still generates "fossil/delve" type reward chests

Bug report reference number: 3,250,955,279

(Potential bug? - unsure if intended "interaction")

According to 3.28.0 patch notes (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3913392),
"
- Removed sources of Fossils from places other than Delve throughout the game.
and
"
- Brute Force Contracts in Heist can now grant Fragment Rewards.
- Trinkets that had a chance to receive additional Fossils when opening a Reward Chest no longer appear.


Whilst I know that it (patch notes) does not explicitly state anything about removing the generation of a fossil/delve-type reward chest, since apparently they can still drop sulphite scarabs (image 2), my understanding was that they wouldn't generate at all, so I'm making this report (in case it wasn't intended). Couldn't really find other similar reports, only that some people apparently still received fossils(?) https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3916760

This was during Tibbs's quest contract "Finding Opal" btw.




P.S.: PLEASE FIX GIANNA DISAPPEARING AND WILLY-NILLY OPENING DOORS (THAT I DON'T WANT HER TO) IN DECEPTION CONTRACTS, THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE HEIST LEAGUE
