Thanks MBSC.Plain English version:
The actual language is in IRS Publication 550 in the sections 'Market Discount Bonds' and 'Discount on Short-Term Obligations' within the "if you do not accrue" statements.

If you manage MAGI for ACA subsidies (or at the top of a Medicare IRMAA tier), the timing of a lump sum interest payment may be a factor.
