Can you give an example with some real image and initramfs recipe where
this works? In other words, provide an example where the old behavior
fails and the new one works?

When using core-image-minimal and core-image-minimal-initramfs, then
both have different IMGDEPLOYDIRs, therefore code in core-image-minimal
can only find the .cpio.gz in the DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE. So to me, the
current approach seems correct.
