Rage when hit not applying when hit is blocked

I recently took the rage on hit small nodes leading up to the notable "vengeful fury" When i am active blocking, or when my passive block actually succeeds i do not generate rage for blocking the "hit" not sure if this is intended.

i only generate rage from "rage when hit by enemy" when i lose life. Thorns procs on block and features the same words. "hit with melee attack"

I encountered this too. Passive blocking hits, with glancing blows, still did not generate the rage.
Can confirm this behavior with Warbringer "Turtle Charm". Character blocks passively which results in no damage and no rage gain. Active blocking with Resonating Shield stacks up rage in no time.
Not tested the Thorns part and also not tested the attack speed on hit nodes around Revenge. Assuming that they will not work either.
EDIT: Added a small test with Towering Shield (which explicitly states "active block"). Turtle Charm blocks are not active blocks, which isn't really a surprise. So it seems that there are three categories for "rage on hit": Hit with damage reception, active block and passive block. Only the latest doesn't generate rage which seems counter intuitive as the middle one, active block, also generates rage like being hit. Feels like a bug.
