Desaturate

Did the behavior of Desaturate in PP change with 2020? 

I seem to remember using Desaturate to turn text to Black. Now it turns it to grayscale, so you need to use Adjust > Grayscale and push all the sliders to the left to get black. 
Just curious if this is new. I am turning selected text from sort-of-black to red, so I am desaturating it first.
(Desaturate and Grayscale work on selections, whereas some of the other Adjustments work only on the entire image.)
