Comment (by rajinsharwar):

 Hi @kratosgemini, thanks for opening the ticket! Well, it's a default
 behavior for WordPress I believe to show a logged-in page when the user is
 still logged in. So, even if you are logged in to the Admin Dashboard if
 you try to go under /wp-login.php, it will show the login form. So, I
 believe, the auth_redirect() should always be encapsulated by the
 is_user_logged_in() function to avoid this behavior.

 What we can do is, update this behavior in the code doc for future
 reference.
