Good.

Just to be sure, I reran your test, again. No problem.

You said that you're on macOS, while I'm using GNU/Linux. Perhaps this
makes the difference, and we see an error of Emacs' thread
implementation on macOS.

It would be helpful, if somebody else could run your test on macOS,
using the Tramp ELPA package, for verification.
