Describe the Bug

One of my playlists had almost all songs deleted seemingly at random. Without the history working, the playlist is basically irrecoverable. This change was seen on the Apple Music proper side as well. This happened after I added a duplicate song but I do not know if these two actions are related.

Because I seemingly cannot find or open the log file I have no way to provide more detail either.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Added duplicate song
2. Playlist wiped (minus the duplicates)

Anything else?

I don't really know what to say here. I usually try to write detailed bug reports but this behavior was truly inexplicable and unaccountable. Disappointing and worrying from my perspective as I now am scared about data "corruption" issues with my other playlists. Any feedback on how I can even dig deeper into this bug or how to fix it would be helpful.
