Backlog Myth Realized and Humility

Hello,

I had an Humility in play and played after this a Myth Realized. During the next turn I casted a spell and activated the Myth Realized and MTGO showed me a 1/1 but it has to be a 2/2 creature. After this I checked the rulings again and make the conclusion that this must be a bug on MTGO. If I'm totally wrong with this I would like an explaination. In the Post Scriptum I shared my research to this.

Match #274410333 Game#900698352

In Solitaire Mode I reproduced the situation: I played Myth Realized, then Humility, then Myth Realized, some Spells, activate both Myth Realized, both Myth Realized are 1/1...

P.S.:

This is because both its own ability and Humility's apply in Layer 7b (613.3b Layer 7b: Effects that set power and/or toughness to a specific number or value are applied. Effects that refer to the base power and/or toughness of a creature apply in this layer.) Since they are in the same layer and neither ability depends on the other you use timestamps (613.3. Within layer 7, apply effects in a series of sublayers in the order described below. Within each sublayer, apply effects in timestamp order.)

604.3a A static ability is a characteristic-defining ability if it meets the following criteria: ... (2) it is printed on the card it affects, it was granted to the token it affects by the effect that created the token, or it was acquired by the object it affects as the result of a copy effect or text-changing effect;

And from Gatherer:
Activating the ability that turns Myth Realized into a creature while it’s already a creature will override any effects that set its power or toughness to a specific value. Effects that modify power or toughness without directly setting them to a specific value will continue to apply.
