Yes it does. Come on, not _everything_ is broken :-)
The bug#62720, reported by me, listed the only workaround
that works identically in Emacs 2*. Just go to the package
menu and press 'I' on the package you want to install. Boom, there
go the ancient safeguards against updating builtin packages.
If you look a bit at the package.el code, you'll see that
all this code goes through different flows etc. All these
safeguards and existing behaviour are more likely to be
be accidental than intentional.
Nevertheless, it is possible to pick one of them to
maintain the same behaviour.
