Describe the current, buggy behavior search-replace is not properly updating values in the wp_posts table.

Steps to reproduce

wp search-replace 'from.com' 'to.com' \
  --recurse-objects \
  --skip-columns=guid \
  --skip-tables=wp_users \
  --path=$WP_PATHP_PATH

Here is the first occurrence of from.com

INSERT INTO `wp_posts` VALUES (1,1,'2020-02-15 00:42:07','2020-02-15 00:42:07','<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Welcome to WordPress    . This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start writing!</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->','Hello world!','','trash','open    ','open','','hello-world__trashed','','','2020-02-17 15:54:14','2020-02-17 15:54:14','',0,'http://from.com/?p=1    ',0,'post','',1),(2,1,'2020-02-15 00:42:07','2020-02-15 00:42:07'...

Here is the entire export of the wp_posts table after I ran the wp search-replace command search-error.sql.zip

Describe what you would expect as the correct outcome I would expect all occurrences of the string to be replaced

I think you said --skip-columns=guid, but that's the column with from.com. So it's doing what you told it to. :)

Looking at the example above I tend to agree. Closing for now but please feel free to reopen if I missed something.
