This is fixed in this PR.

[blimpich]

Not a blocker, since its likely already fixed by a PR that hasn't been deployed to staging yet, and is also not a huge bug.

I will retest this once #40351 has been deployed to staging and confirm that it is fixed.

[blimpich]

Not overdue, still waiting for that PR to be deployed to staging and ideally production before retesting this and closing.

[melvin-bot]

@blimpich Uh oh! This issue is overdue by 2 days. Don't forget to update your issues!

[blimpich]

Is fixed in staging now, just tested.
