But this interpretation does not align with reality:

(I mean I don't set pcmk_host_check on my fence_ipmilan resources, only
pcmk_host_list, and they work.)

Unless:

That's why I asked:

Of course the developers are most welcome to chime in with their
intentions and changes concerning this, I haven't got the time to dig

as well, because I'm about to bring up a buster cluster with very
similar config.
