   I think it's important to note that this is only true if the call didn't specify BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy.

   using System;
   using System.Reflection;
   
   interface IFace
   {
       public static int PublicStaticOnInterface = 0;
   
       private static int PrivateStaticOnInterface = 0;
   }
   
   class Base
   {
       public static int PublicStaticOnBase = 0;
       public int PublicInstanceOnBase = 0;
       static int PrivateStaticOnBase = 0;
       int PrivateInstanceOnBase = 0;
   }
   class Program : Base, IFace
   {
       static void Main(string[] args)
       {
           foreach (var f in typeof(Program).GetFields(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy)) Console.WriteLine(f);
       }
   }

   This prints out:

   Int32 PublicInstanceOnBase
   Int32 PublicStaticOnBase
   Int32 PublicStaticOnInterface

   Let's close since dotnet/runtime#102525 tracks the actual work needed.
