@CortneyOfstad, @eh2077 Eep! 4 days overdue now. Issues have feelings too...

Still waiting for proposals

[CortneyOfstad]

I just checked and I am not able to recreate anymore either. @eh2077 — when you have a chance, can you see if you can consistently recreate?

[melvin-bot[bot]]

📣 It's been a week! Do we have any satisfactory proposals yet? Do we need to adjust the bounty for this issue? 💸

[CortneyOfstad]

I am still not able to recreate so going to close. If anyone else can recreate, please let me know and we can reopen!
