Nope, both -X and -Y enable ForwardX11, but -Y also enables
ForwardX11Trusted.  Unfortunately I don't see anything in the OpenSSH
7.7->7.8 changelog (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.8) that
would explain the observed change in behaviour.

$ egrep -C2 "'(X|Y)'" ssh.c
                        options.forward_x11 = 0;
                        break;
                case 'X':
                        options.forward_x11 = 1;
                        break;

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
