Arcpy Describe returns connected user as schema owner

PhilLarkin1

When returning the name of a Feature Class used to create a Query Layer, the schema name is incorrect. It matches the name of the user in the SDE connection file. 

In this example I'd expect to the see the name with the correct schema owner: dboExample. However I get userA.

If I create a Feature Layer with the same SDE connection the correct name is returned: assrsde.dboExample.vertical_units

This seems like a bug. Tested on 10.3 and Pro 2.3 arcpy.

I was expecting that arcpy.Describe would return the fully qualified name of the Query Layer. This would show the true schema owner, as opposed to the user that is connected. In the several examples i've shown my desired return from Describe().baseName:

<SPAN class="" style="color: #669900; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-size: 14px;">ASSRSDE.dboExample.Vertical_Units</SPAN>

what I get is:

<SPAN class="" style="color: slategray; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-size: 14px;">assrsde.userA.vertical_units <- User connected (Input_database parameter)</SPAN>

At the very least, if I am aliasing a table in the FROM clause it would be nice if that was honored as the baseName.
