OK, so in this one case, what seems to happen is the backend does not save the _share_on_mastodon value.

Which I can't explain; it's no different than when we publish right away!

That is, it's all done by WordPress core. All we do is tell WordPress the field exists, and sanitize it when it's there:

We check permissions, we save the value, or rather, turn it into a (string, because ... historical reasons) "1" or "0".
