THIS.searchImplicitScopes=false breaks web service argumentCollection

Simple repro:

1) Run this:

Application.cfc
----------------------
component {
    THIS.name = "SearchImplicitScopesDisabledBreaksWebServiceArgumentCollection";
    THIS.secureJSONPrefix="";
    THIS.searchImplicitScopes = false;
}

MyCFC.cfc
----------------------
component {remote function myFunction(myArg) {return ARGUMENTS;}}

index.cfm
----------------------
<cfscript>
  myArgs = {myArg="foobar"};
  
  cfhttp(url='http://' & CGI.HTTP_HOST & getDirectoryFromPath(CGI.SCRIPT_NAME) & 'MyCFC.cfc?method=myFunction&argumentCollection=' & serializeJSON(myArgs).encodeForURL() & '&returnFormat=json');
  writeOutput(CFHTTP.FileContent);//returns {"MYARG":null} (bad)
  
  cfwddx(action="cfml2wddx", input=myArgs, output="myArgsWDDX");
  cfhttp(url='http://' & CGI.HTTP_HOST & getDirectoryFromPath(CGI.SCRIPT_NAME) & 'MyCFC.cfc?method=myFunction&argumentCollection=' & myArgsWDDX.encodeForURL() & '&returnFormat=json');
  writeOutput(CFHTTP.FileContent);//returns {"MYARG":null} (bad)
</cfscript>

Actual result: {"MYARG":null}{"MYARG":null}
Expected result: {"MYARG":"foobar"}{"MYARG":"foobar"}

Verified in CF2016 Update 3 (build 2016.0.03.300466).

Note: All CFAJAX that relies on web service argumentCollection (CFAJAX grids, cfajaxproxy, etc) is also broken.
