Does sp_rename on a column preserve the ms_description?

Did some checking as couldn’t find help in the MSDN documentation. My test on SQL 2016 shows that since the column_id isn’t changing, the existing mapping of the description for the column is preserved.

I know it’s probably pretty obvious, but I had someone ask me, so figured proving the mapping for ms_description is maintained would be a good thing to walk through. Score another point for Microsoft, for design practices
