[Bug?] [Clock] snooze by flipping the phone snoozes countdowns

I just noticed that the newly-introduced "snooze by flipping the phone" feature actually works for countdowns, too, but in a way that was very unexpected: It actually snoozed the countdown for five minutes and then ringed again.

This was irritating, because there's no such option in the actual menu shown on screen. I would have expected that it activates the only option that is displayed in the pull-up-menu, i.e. dismisses the countdown.

[Bug?] [Clock] snooze by flipping the phone snoozes countdowns

I just noticed that the newly-introduced "snooze by flipping the phone" feature actually works for countdowns, too, but in a way that was very unexpected: It actually snoozed the countdown for five minutes and then ringed again.

Edit: Here are specific steps on how to reproduce

  1. Add a new countdown, let's say for one minute.
  2. Start the countdown, wait for the countdown to finish.
  3. After the minute passed, the popup overlay screen comes up, showing the name and length of the countdown, an X and a pull up menu at the bottom. The pull up menu contains only one option, "dismiss".
  4. Instead of interacting with the screen, flip the phone. The popup overlay gets closed, but the end of the countdown is not dismissed, but snoozed like an alarm, an option you didn't have in in the pull up menu. Afterwards, you can see in the bottom right corner of the lock screen that the clock app is still active.
  5. Wait five minutes. Afterwards, the popup overlay screen comes up a second time, the same way as it came up in point 3.
