This comes from #75704, could we just demote this? This is edge case and user will rarely go from those steps.

This seems like a bad behavior, I'm leaning towards reverting the original PR, and then having @ShridharGoel create a follow up PR, so we arent Cping a bunch of fixes. Thoughts?

[Krishna2323]

@JS00001 let me test this issue on main branch and then in this PR, this might have been already fixed.
