There was a problem hiding this comment.
Per what is done in Keystone source code[1], I think this is consistent and looks correct.

Fixes #3868
When authenticating with application credentials,
ToTokenV3ScopeMapwas including a project scope in the token request. Keystone rejects this with HTTP 401:Application credentials cannot request a scope.Application credentials carry an implicit project scope already. The fix returns an empty scope map early when application credentials are present.
