withLatestFrom not working as expect

[cuzv]

final class ViewModel {
  let nodes = CurrentValueSubject<[Int], Never>([])
  var cancel: AnyCancellable?

  init() {
    cancel = nodes
      .dropFirst()
      .filter {
        !$0.isEmpty
      }
      .withLatestFrom(nodes)
      .sink { [weak self] nodes in
        guard let self else { return }

        print("nodes.count: \(nodes.count)")
        print("self.nodes.value.count: \(self.nodes.value.count)")
        if nodes.count != self.nodes.value.count {
          print("WTF")
        }
      }

    nodes.send([1, 2, 3])
  }
}

If you run it multiple times, it might print WTF. I've used the Rx framework for many years and I find this behavior quite strange. Is this normal or abnormal?
