May 2025 qlik sense update broke part of window function

plan_query:
LOAD
     friday_date,
     project,
     funding_type,
     start_dt,
     planned_mandays,
     window(count(DISTINCT friday_date)) as num_weeks,
     window(count(DISTINCT project)) as num_projects
FROM [lib://AttachedFiles/Over Time Upload FY26.xlsx]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is [Unpivoted Execution Plan]);

Before the May 2025 qlik sense update this query worked as expected in the data load editor.  But now num_weeks returns 0 for every row.  This seems to be the case if I do something similar with any numeric field. friday_date is a date/numeric field.  However num_projects works just as expected and that seems to be because project is a string field, not numeric.  It correctly returns 29 for every row in this case.  I know there's workarounds to this specific case.  But in more complicated cases, the work arounds become messier.  So I'm wondering why this issue was introduced and whether there's a plan for it to be fixed.
