Short description of the issue

I am not sure if the behavior I am seeing is a bug or expected, but the screenshots will clarify.

Expected behavior

I am not actually certain, but I think my main surprise is how $pages->findOne('id=2261') (as NON superuser) doesn't return the user, but $pages->findOne(2261) does return it. I assumed the check_access would be required whenever using $pages instead of $users.

I am also a little surprised about the difference where $users->get(13160) returns the trashed user, but $users->get('id=13160') doesn't.

Note that I often end up using $pages with check_access for a couple of reasons. The main one is to avoid returning trashed users (but maybe that's not necessary if I remember to always add the id= to the $users->get. The other reasons is to use findMany(), although that's not really relevant to this discussion.

Actual behavior

See the screenshots below. Note that there are 4 runs in total, two as a superuser and 2 as a non-superuser. And within those, one is a published user and the other is a trashed user.
