Multiple methods of Variant throwing errors

[fh-kpikhart]

I am hitting errors with the Variant methods that I suspect are due to bug(s).

I have a variant "d":

> d
RStudio Connect Content: 
  Content GUID: cd3c03ba-38dc-44d1-946f-ec51d011f57d

    variants: function ()  

I am able to call some methods of d:

This warning is displayed once per session. 

However I am unable to call other methods of d:

Thanks for reporting this!! It has been a while since I poked at this part of the code base, so it may take me a bit to get back up to speed, but this definitely seems like it should be improved 😄
