   Hey,

   When passing properties on which objects should be compared actually no difference is made.

   $props = @('SN','DN','CN') Compare-Object $1st $2nd -Property $props -IncludeEqual | ft Compare-Object $1st $2nd -IncludeEqual | ft

   First and Second compare result in the same output

   It doesn't work properly on PowerShell 5.1, but even on that, it's not displaying the same result for me:

   $1st = @{SN='foo'}
   $2nd = @{SN='bar'}
   $props = @('SN','DN','CN')
   Compare-Object $1st $2nd -Property $props -IncludeEqual | ft
   Compare-Object $1st $2nd -IncludeEqual | ft

   PowerShell 5.1

   SN DN CN SideIndicator
   -- -- -- -------------
            ==
   
   InputObject SideIndicator
   ----------- -------------
   {SN}        ==
   

   PowerShell 7.4

   SN  DN CN SideIndicator
   --  -- -- -------------
   bar       =>
   foo       <=
   
   InputObject SideIndicator
   ----------- -------------
   {[SN, foo]} ==
