An additional comment: the expected behavior happens in all desktop browsers I've tried, Chrome for Android, Safari for iOS, but not in Brave, Chrome, or Firefox for iOS.

Tested on latest Nightly 17e876cda. 

On desktop when clicking on the "Click!" button the following URL will always be displayed: https://www.google.com/#q=success.

On Nightly when clicking on the "Click!" button the following URL will always be displayed: https://www.google.com/#q=failure.

On Chrome/Safari for iOS on some occasions (the first attempt or second) clicking on the button will return https://www.google.com/#q=success and in most of the cases will return https://www.google.com/#q=failure. 

I suspect that this might be webkit issue.
