I created an issue with reproducibility. #23348

@abigalekim We should probably fix this in release/26.08 since it would be broken in the same way. Can you rebase this PR on that branch, and then change the target from main to release/26.08? (Please do it that order. Doing the target branch change first will ping a bunch of people.)

Thank you @abigalekim !

Should we also push this to main and not just the upcoming release, since it will affect development as well?

I think the next forward merge will take care of this in main 🙂
