2016 Re-open After Change -- No Warning Message is given

In prior versions of Excel if a change is made to a previously saved file and then if a Reopen is attempted a Warning message is given that says something like "if you continue to reopen the file all changes will be lost".

However, what I'm finding with my Excel 2016 (365) is that the file reopen "is done" without any message. However the file is not restored to its previous state (prior to the changes) rather the file with changes made is retained.

Does anyone know what's going on here?

It seems like a glaring bug to me.
