Rocket splash goes through enemies to damage them

So I was messing around in walkway and I noticed that firing rockets at groups of enemies damages all of them (just like pipes and stickies). I also noticed this when playing some pickups earlier today.
Is this old news, because I can’t remember any patch notes that said this?
Surely the rockets only splash on the surface it hits on, and thus if someone was behind the soldier they wouldnt take damage.

Try it out, it damages everyone in the splash.
EDIT for clarification:
E E <-rocket- you
E are enemies, you is you firing a rocket. Splash will now damage both, just like pipes & stickies.

Gonna test this more tomorrow, but it kinda felt like that when I was playing earlier.
Can’t be true though, surely? Would be kind of random by Valve to fix one of the worst bugs in the game without mentioning it
Fixed a bug that would prevent Jarate and Mad Milk from applying to all targets within range
Interesting, maybe it has something to do with this patch note?
This bug looks like a bug with 1 pixel wall.(eg in badlands last’s corner)
TF2 has a lot of annoying bugs.

Just confirmed on server with Byte that rocket splash is definitely going through people. Seems to apply to both pipes and stickies as well. Wonder if this change was intentional…
gg blocking rockets for your medic anymore…

makes sense why i got so much splash damage last night -_-
I think it’s a mistake. They changed how jarate splashed a few updates ago, then they changed it back but included explosive splash.

It always happened with pipes and stickies, that it happens with rockets is new.
Selek probably has the most likely explanation, that Valve’s ‘fix’ for jarate/milk is now applying to every explosive.
Fragga always wanted this. Will he return now? The day of reckoning is upon us D:
