Crash when calling BasePart:UnionAsync and BasePart:SubtractAsync on a Union with another Union parented inside of it

Bug Reports Engine Bugs
#1

Reproduction Steps

The following script can reproduce the crash:

local a = Instance.new("Part")
a.Parent = workspace

local b = a:UnionAsync{a}
b.Parent = workspace

b:Clone().Parent = b
b:SubtractAsync{a}

Expected Behavior

Preferably, any children inside of the UnionOperation should be ignored when performing the operation.

Actual Behavior

The crash dialog appears and the application exits.

Workaround

Creating a clone of the union, calling ClearAllChildren() on it, and then calling UnionAsync/SubtractAsync on the cloned union instead.

A fix has been merge that should address this issue. When it is released, I will post here again to mention it.

The fix makes it behave in the same way as studio and as expected per this reported bug.
