Seems new arch related so we might remove blocker as it seems to be Android only.

Issue not reproducible during KI retests. (First week)

[melvin-bot]

This issue has not been updated in over 15 days. @AndrewGable, @akinwale eroding to Monthly issue.

P.S. Is everyone reading this sure this is really a near-term priority? Be brave: if you disagree, go ahead and close it out. If someone disagrees, they'll reopen it, and if they don't: one less thing to do!

[mvtglobally]
