Even if it wouldn't have detected this problem, that Klein tool detects a lot of problems which don't immediately cause weird issues.
E.g. open grounds, flipped ground/neutral, flipped hot/neutral.
Lots of things which work perfectly fine, until they don't.
The GFCI tester on them is great too.
Klein makes a marginally more expensive version ($20) which does show voltage and you could have seen the symptoms of this particular problem.
