Enhancements can cause defects. This is working as intended.

Direct3D doesn't have this issue.

D3D also applies anisotropic filtering differently. It's something drivers/specs determine, not Dolphin (in some cases.) I could be wrong, but, even if I am, I don't think we can perfectly mimic the behavior of D3D here.

But it is a bug related to enhancements. Probably unrelated but I read up on Dolphin having graphical issues since the beginning playing Sonic Heroes that still persists to this very day (but partially fixed starting with 4.0-1474).

Enhancements aren't intended to cause defects, they just happen to do so. The "Working as intended" label is inappropriate for this issue.
