It's in the title. If you save during the cutscene at the beginning and load your save, you will be at the ship. This makes the game impossible as you cannot get Violet because Space Station 1 is enclosed, the only exit being by teleporter.

That still doesn't make it any worse a bug

Really, the glitch is fairly minor in the scheme of things - especially since it only affects fresh save files and can easily be fixed by simply starting the game over. It's also occasionally used by speedrunners, and while it could be regulated to the game's glitchrunner mode, it's unlikely (and inconsequential) enough to be encountered by a regular player that it can probably be left as-is.

In broader terms: Generally with game logic if it doesn't depend on undefined language behavior and isn't an outright crash it's a feature and not a bug; if we do fix this you'll still have to preserve the bug for compatibility with previous versions or speedrunner modes.

Most of what we're focused on these days is stuff for the editor or engine-level things (input systems, touch support, things like that), so this definitely falls into "PRs welcome" territory.
