Current Behavior

On Debian with Bash 5.2.15 completion with space seems to be broken:

I was doing mv ~Download/some file with spaces.txt .
I would type mv ~/Download/some<TAB> and it would expand to: mv "~/Download/some\\\ file\\\ with\\\ spaces.txt"

Expected Behavior

Whereas it should have expanded to mv "~/Download/some\ file\ with\ spaces.txt"
