Research direction
Start by running the minimal LaTeX example from the issue with hyperref and \LinkTargetOff, then inspect the caption handling that produces the figure.1 pdfdest. Done means the caption no longer creates that target when link targets are disabled, while the documented or expected behavior remains intact.
