Hi there!
I'm not sure though where this can be addressed - I'm thinking maybe further up the inheritance chain in EntityReference class?
Correct yeah, all this module does is alter views data to make use of the Entity Reference filter in core (ie, opts in to it https://git.drupalcode.org/project/views_core_entity_reference/-/blob/1....). It does not actually provide the entity reference filter. So the issue would need to be raised in Drupal Core itself if you have found a bug with it.
As a workaround you can specifically only opt some fields into the new filter per the "Alternatives to using this module" instructions on the module homepage https://www.drupal.org/project/views_core_entity_reference β
Hope that helps! I'll move it to works as designed here, but rather than create a separate issue you could also decide to move the issue 'Project' entirely over to core and re-open.

@scott_euser - thank you for your reply. Yes, did try the workaround you suggested but unfortunately the field we are interested in is used both as an exposed filter some places and as non-exposed in others, so once we alter it to work as an exposed filter it breaks in its other case.
I did my best to read over #3347343 and I don't see a lot of discussion about non-exposed filters. I can raise this as a core issue. Do you think it'd be better to add a comment to the above thread or a brand new issue? I only ask because the feature is currently somewhat under the radar. Thank you.
