Don't have access to character size scaling values when LoadCharacterAppearance is false

Reproduction Steps
This issue is easily createable here is the Screenshot showing the missing humanoid description and scale values

All you have to do is go to StarterPlayer:Properties:LoadCharacterAppearance and change that to false.

Actual Behavior
Lack of Values and Humanoid Description Instance

Thank you so much I really appreciate it. I just kind of figured someone had a work around but I also figured that someone forgot to replicate it when updating.
