Wow, that worked! Thanks a lot! 👌
You can try comparing a property on an entity to null, rather than the entity itself. E.g.: instead of doing where p.Person.Name == “Foo” || p.Person == null
Try: where p.Person.Name == “Foo” || p.Person.Name == null
This should circumvent the bug, but you might hit some other issues. Worth to try though.
