how do you check this?

I cannot reproduce here ('nice' wasn't changed to this regard since 8.25):

  $ nice --version | head -n1
  nice (GNU coreutils) 8.30
  $ nice
  0
  $ nice -n 1 nice
  1

'nice' only adds 10 if I don't specify a number:

  $ nice nice
  10

Could you please show us a reproducer?

Have a nice day,
