Hi @mvtglobally. I agree with #12249 being a bug, but not a deploy blocker. I've checked off #12124 as the PR test steps are passing (at least on the first use).

[Julesssss]

#12136 was checked off as it's untestable outside of prod.

[Julesssss]

#12275 is now reproducable on prod, so this is not a mobile regression. Continueing to move forward once the last regression is resolved

[Julesssss]

I checked off the final blocker, #12281 as it was not reproducible for me on web or iOS

[Julesssss]

Switch Report is looking better in the App performance timing dashboard. Homepage initial render is worse, but we are aligned on the fact that this is due to a change in the timing logic and doesn't accurately represent a regression.

[Julesssss]

The only new crashlytics issues were from the SVG library crash that was resolved in the last deploy. I cleared up the console while I was there.
