Spite broken 5.2.3

So the spite nodes in Act 5.2.3 don't seem to be working properly. I thought that enemies only gained power while a buff was active? I just fought Doctor Voodoo and Punisher and both activate a permanent power gain when a buff activated.

Figured I would try and post a pic...as you can see (hopefully) punisher has active power gain buff but I have no active buffs so Spite should be off.
