Why does ReSharper report "expression is always false"? (for boolean Equals true true)

Question

The unit test passing appears to contradict the inspection claim.

There are a lot of false reports of bugs with this inspection.

    public void Foo2()
    {
        bool objA = true;
        bool objB = true;

        var result1 = Equals(objA, objB);
        Assert.Equal(true, result1);
    }

Using:

• JetBrains ReSharper Ultimate 2018.2.1 Build 182.0.20180829.63240
• Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2017 Version 15.8.9
