Why is it so?

Answer 1

The code that displays the close reason on the main question/show page made some bad assumptions about old data^*.

I've changed it so that it should always match what's on the revisions page, fixing this bug.

Thanks for finding it!

_{* Old meaning more than two weeks old here on Meta, or when we started testing new flag/close code.}
