PayPal SDK Buttons: unhandled_error [Error: Window closed]

PayPal Smart Button: unhandled error when popup closed before it loads

• paypal.version: 5.0.117
• Chrome: Version: 80.0.3987.162
• Cannot provide a public URL (yet)
• Error always occurs
• Also occurs in https://developer.paypal.com/demo/checkout

Code snippet:

paypal.Buttons({
        style: {
            layout: 'vertical',
            color: 'gold',
            shape: 'pill',
            label: 'paypal'
        },
        env: 'sandbox',
        client: {
            sandbox,
            production
        },
        locale: 'en_GB',
        createBillingAgreement: onPaypalCreateBillingAgreement,
        onApprove: onPaypalApprovedPayment,
        onCancel: onPaymentCancelled,
        onError: onPaymentError
    }).render('#braintree-paypal-cta');

Where onPaypalCreateBillingAgreement simply does paypalCheckoutInstance.createPayment({ flow: 'vault', enableShippingAddress: false })

Steps to reproduce

1. Click on PayPal Smart Button
2. Close the popup before loader stops
