The bug being reported is that the '\t' characters have a black background

Bash and readline don't do anything with terminal foreground colors and
background colors except under certain circumstances like bracketed-paste.
If you're pasting the above command into the terminal, that pasted text
will be colored according to active-region-start-color and
active-region-end-color (bash-5.2) or terminal standout mode (bash-5.1).
Otherwise, readline redisplay just outputs terminal sequences to move the
cursor and the characters in the line.
