Curious why this isn't covered by a test

With 1.3.1 we now have

$ micromamba env list | grep boa
  boa                 /Users/j/micromamba/envs/boa
$ micromamba shell -n boa
critical libmamba The given prefix does not exist: "envs/boa"

I wonder why the test is ok.

[Hind-M]

$ micromamba env list | grep boa
boa /Users/j/micromamba/envs/boa
$ micromamba shell -n boa
critical libmamba The given prefix does not exist: "envs/boa"

That means that the root_prefix is considered empty while it's supposed to be /Users/j/micromamba/. Is it related to a special setting of the root_prefix?
