   I found a reference to this oddity via blame. MNG-4955 states that this is a 
remnant from fixing the early days of metadata files (MNG-4452).  It's still 
unclear to me what this exactly fixed even though there is a clear explanation 
for it.
   
   I can't fathom why it wouldn't have without this fix. Maybe if the metadata 
for `SNAPSHOT<myclassifier>:jar` was missing all-together then falling back to 
whatever repo with the latest `SNAPSHOT` key would function as a fallback, but 
that's not the described use case.
