This answer doesn't explain why it works. I hope someone more familiar with the linprog code or with linear programming in general can give a more thorough answer.

One component is slightly negative (-1.11e-12). Presumably this is within the default tolerance. That can be cleaned up by lowering the tolerance (but note the change in x[19]):

It seems like a tolerance issue.

I was able to "fix" it by importing the original linprog code, after I changed the tolerance (tol parameter) from 10e-12 to 10e-8 in the "private" method _linprog_simplex.

This parameter is passed to the method _pivot_col, which reads

ma = np.ma.masked_where(T[-1, :-1] >= -tol, T[-1, :-1], copy=False)
    if ma.count() == 0:
        return False, np.nan
    if bland:
        return True, np.where(ma.mask == False)[0][0]
    return True, np.ma.where(ma == ma.min())[0][0]

This is why bland's rule passes the test, while the default one fails. I then tried to find if there is any default tolerance in the implementation of numpy.masked_where. From there, it is not obvious what is the tolerance that is used, but other numpy functions, such as masked_values, have an absolute tolerance of 10e-8 by default.

I hope this helps.

Here is the result I am getting by changing the tolerance in _linprog_simplex:

PS: I also had to change the line

from .optimize import OptimizeResult, _check_unknown_options

to

from scipy.optimize import OptimizeResult

and remove the call to _check_unknown_options in line 533 of the original code.
