rails cancancan upgrade 3.0.2 -> 3.5.0 issue

ruby 2.7.8 rails 6.1.7.7 cancancan 3.5.0

I have upgraded cancancan in favor of upgrading rails version to 6.1.7.7, but now ability file is behaving really weird specially the ones with STI. I have to rearrange the permission sequence to pass my test cases.

Is anyone know what have changed or it is only related to my application. There is an open issue as well in cancancan for STI https://github.com/CanCanCommunity/cancancan/issues/809

for example

can :manage, [User::Base,
        User::Customer,
        User::Employee]
can :read, UserFollowedRecord, post_id: Post.accessible_by(self).ids

with the above while looking for Post.accessible_by(self).ids adding type in query with 'customer' and 'employee' and breaks with type column not defined on post

but the below snippet works correctly

can :manage, [User::Base]
can :read, UserFollowedRecord, post_id: Post.accessible_by(self).ids
can :manage, [User::Customer,
        User::Employee]
