from wordpress side
It is a bug at least in part. Technically, the bug is that comment/note
submissions via the REST API do not trigger notifications which is
unexpected. Comments saved via the ajax route do trigger notifications.
When we added the REST API comment route, I believe this was overlooked
because we didn't use the comment route in core at the time. Now that we
are - notes save via the REST comment route - the bug has become apparent.
That said, to add the notifications for notes requires updating the
notification message which isn't exactly fixing a bug.
