RN 0.80 unstable modal and app crash

[Pnlvfx]

Description

I'm using a button to let user choose which season of a series he want to watch, this button open a fullscreenModal and you can see from the provided videos what is now happening.

Before 0.80 (Working fine) ( I was in 0.79.3 but i don't remember the rn screens version, i'm sorry.)

What happens when I click the close button which only call navigation.goBack (crash)

What happens when I click to choose a season. (another modal is spawned) The function use navigation.popTo and nothing else is called. The error of undefined is because the params are also not being merged, instead a new modal is spawned which only has the currentSeason, the screen is, of course, expecting the id to be always provided.

on the 0.79.3 I was just doing

navigation.popTo('Series') and it was working fine, with 0.80 it crash like the goBack, so I refractored to the whole navigation tree:

/** @ts-expect-error */
      // eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-call
      navigation.popTo('Tab', {
        screen: activeTab,
        params: {
          screen: 'Series',
          params: {
            currentSeason: season,
            merge: true,
          },
        },
      });

and this is what happens:

Sorry I'm unable to provide a reproduction as I'm on a mac which barely can handle my project and I have just a few GB left, however I tried to catch the crash on xcode and this is the log, it point to react native fabric, tbh I didn't see any react-native-screens file involved into the error tree but watching what happens with the modal I think this is the right place to report this. I waited two weeks before reporting this because I'm still not sure what is going on and I also tried to refractor a bit my code but it seems broken at all, I also tried the nightly version of rn screens.
