This is normal behaviour.
\cadenzaOn contains \set Timing.autoBeaming = ##f  (which was maybe not
the case in 2.12).

Manual beaming [ ] behaves like slur ( ) because of the melisma rules
(which are based on common engraving practices), see NR 2.1.1
Common notation for vocal music > Multiple notes to one syllable

  Notes are considered a melisma if they are manually beamed, providing
  automatic beaming is switched off.

Use  \set melismaBusyProperties = #'()  if you do not want these
melismata.

Cheers,
Xavier
