blog/page/N breaks if permalink is /blog/%postname%

when the post permalink is /blog/%postname% the URL is parsed like this (according to debug). Note “name=page” instead of “name=blog”

Request:
blog/page/6

Query String:
page=6&name=page&post_type=post

Matched Rewrite Rule:
blog/([^/]+)(?:/([0-9]+))?/?$

Matched Rewrite Query:
name=page&page=6&post_type=post

I believe it is related to the issue here
https://wpquestions.com/Rewrite_rules_pagination_problem/15041

according to Rewrite Analyzer this rule
blog/([^/]+)?(:/([0-9]+))?/?$ => name: page, page: 3, post_type: post

is firing before
(.?.+?)/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$ => pagename: blog, paged: 3

thanks for any advice
J
