[BUG] org-at-timestamp-p not correctly detecting when at a timestamp [9.5.5 (release_9.5.5 @ /usr/share/emacs/28.2/lisp/org/)]

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

     https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
org-at-timestamp-p is supposed to test if point is at a timestamp.

I've written the following function to test it:


  (defun my/test-timestamp ()
    (interactive)
    (if (org-at-timestamp-p)
        (message "Point is at timestamp")
      (message "Point is not at timestamp")))

When I run this on a timestamp (either active or inactive), it does not
detect a timestamp.

If I instead test for (org-at-timestamp-p 'inactive), it does correctly
test for inactive timestamps.

Is there something I have overlooked?

I am running: Org Version: 9.5.5 Emacs Version: GNU Emacs 28.2 (build 1,
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.36, cairo version 1.17.6)

This worked as expected before a recent update.

Works for me on main and bugfix.
Try the latest Org.
