JQL query search using "status was" returns incorrect unreliable results for Company Managed projects

Summary

For company managed projects, when searching for issues using JQL such as:

project = PROJECT_NAME AND (status CHANGED FROM "To Do" OR status = "To Do")

status was "In Progress" after "2022-03-09" AND status in ("Ready for Release", Done, Closed, Declined, Postponed)

status was "In Progress" after endOfDay(-21d) AND status in ("Ready for Release", Done, Closed, Declined, Postponed)

assignee WAS currentUser() AFTER "2022-01-01" AND project = "DEMO"

If JQL contains "WAS" and AFTER or endOfDay it ** does not consider the timeline and returns all results.

The results are unreliable.

Steps to Reproduce

• Work case 1

1. Create a  project with statuses "To Do", "In Progress" and "Done".
2. Create some issues, and transition some of them around.
3. Run the query: project = PROJECT_NAME AND (status CHANGED FROM "To Do" OR status = "To Do")
4.  Run the query  status was "In Progress" after endOfDay(-2d) 

• Work case 2

1. Have or create several issues in and outside of the required parameters 
2. Run the query status was "In Progress" after endOfDay(-21d) AND status in ("Ready for Release", Done, Closed, Declined, Postponed)

Expected Results

• Only issues in the specified parameters should be returned.

Actual Results

• Issues not in the specified parameters are returned

Notes

We primarily see this happening in these scenarios:

• The search doesn't work well in company-managed projects when there has been a workflow change
