Getting Patrol XP as mission bonus?

Since Tuesday's patch, I notice I'm getting Patrol XP upon mission completion for a lot of my arc missions (playing red-side, on missions from contacts in Nerva and St. Martial).

For example, I just wrapped up the "Kidnap Akarist" mission for Johnny Sonata and got ~30k in Patrol XP in addition to the normal mission completion bonus.

I've only been back on CoX for about a month following a looong (3.5 yr) hiatus, so if this is how it's supposed to work then, well, nevermind. But I didn't see anything like that in the documentation or wikis.

Patrol XP is only granted for defeats. When you complete a mission, you get the normal amount (No bonus), and Patrol XP shouldn't be used. Because of this, the end of your Patrol XP bar should move forward, but the number should remain the same.

If you read the number before and after completing a mission, and the number is bigger after, see if you can replicate it. If so, /bug it. That is NOT intended behaviour.

Right, I'm not talking about eating up existing patrol XP with debt... I'm talking about: no patrol XP on the bar, turn in mission to contact, get 30k Patrol XP. Nobody else has seen this?
