Yes, sir, I did not reproduce this on master. Even on morty, I only saw
twice. Maybe we can hold on this and let me keep monitoring. Thanks.

Let me make this simpler. Which release of the project did you see this issue with?
I believe this issue would only occur with morty and early, pyro, rocko and master are not affected.
Cheers,
Richard
