Expected Behavior

I had expected the permalink formats to operate the same way between 4.3.4 and 4.4.0, however instead of the expected paths of:

/hello/world/index.md -> /hello/world/index.html
/hello/world.md -> /hello/world/index.html

Current Behavior

I'm now getting:

/hello/world/index.md -> /hello/world/index/index.html
/hello/world.md -> /hello/world/index.html

Notice the extra /index/ folder in the path.

These are paths generated from pages in collections using the following config rules, which up until 4.4.0 were producing the expected output:

permalink: pretty

collections:
  pages:
    output: true
  posts:
    output: true
  guides:
    output: true
  reference:
    output: true

defaults:
  - scope:
      path: "_*/**/*"
    values:
      permalink: /:categories/:collection/:path:output_ext
      layout: page
  - scope:  
      path: "_*/**/*.md"
    values:
      permalink: /:categories/:collection/:path/
  - scope:  
      path: "_*/**/index.md"
    values:
      permalink: /:categories/:collection/:path:output_ext
