D&D 5E - Nystul's (Arcanist's?) Magic Aura vs Detect Magic?

JavaScript is disabled. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. Nystal's causes divination spells to reveal false information. Detect Magic is a divination spell. So DM will register whatever false aura the NMA caster chose.

You should upgrade or use an alternative browser. The way Nystul's (or is it Arcanist's?) Magic Aura works, is that it hides the magical aura produced by the object or effect. The interactions between the Magic Aura spell and Identify had been asked before and it seems that Identify​ could show the caster the false aura. But would Detect Magic detect the false aura or would it not detect anything if the Magic Aura was hiding all magical effects?

Isn't Nystul's pretty much designed to spoof Detect Magic?
