Metric rename not propagated to formulas using it

I renamed a metric, and a downstream metric referencing it didn't auto-update — the formula kept the old name and broke with "Unknown Block". Renames usually propagate to dependent formulas automatically, so this looks like a gap specific to the references. Has anyone else seen this?

I have seen this in the past, but it was an intermediary state before the whole application updated and in some edge cases refresh the crawler.

Hey, no, this is clearly a bug for a support ticket

Had this once too. Tip: check the “Used in” list before renaming, then scan it after for Unknown Block errors. Re-saving the broken formula usually fixes the reference. Still worth a support ticket with the block IDs like Nathan said.
