It does. I'm surprised it cannot be removed however in the manner you have tried.
2.4.13 & 2.2.30 will not have it. These are scheduled for next week but anytime I've predicted (based on talk on the dev mailing list) I've never been right.
I happened to read something just last week on this very subject. Of course the aim was to hide the fact you may have old versions running and not just of Apache. My feelings are these people looking for vulnerable software versions throw everything at you anyway, I get scans looking for all sorts of stuff I do not even have. Because of this, obscurity will not protect you. Only staying up to date on your software will.
Regardless of my opinion on the above, it will be gone next release. That decision was already made.
