That Figma auto-layout update is eating my component spacing

I was working on a dashboard for a client in Austin last night and when I updated a nested component, Figma just randomly collapsed all my padding. Like, 16px turned to 0 for no reason. Nobody warned me about this specific bug with version 123.5, but I had to redo 4 frames. Has anyone else seen auto-layout values reset when you edit a variant?

Yeah that variant edit bug is real with 123.5. I've found duplicating the component first and then editing the copy keeps the original spacing safe.
