Sure, but what I'd like to understand is how you get to that situation during
normal usage. Note that it was loading from cloud storage that resulted in the
problem. Perhaps I'm paranoid, but this reeks of memory corruption to me.
While your fix is certainly correct - I wonder if it is hiding a more
fundamental problem. Whatever it is - you still lose the cylinder-use data.
Better than a crash for sure, but still not ideal.
