Will add to CNV 4.8 release notes, known issues section.
Thanks Avital. The bug referenced in the code is Bug #1974689 (Target: OCP-4.9.0, Status: VERIFIED), while it should be Bug #1974812 (Target: OCP-4.8.z, Status: POST)
It looks like Matthew Garrett added this to the CNV release notes, so I can close this as "wont fix"
Reopening so that I can update the BZ link and wording of the RN. PR: https://github.com/openshift/openshift-docs/pull/34375
CNV release notes updated and merged.
