A couple of questions:

- Is it the GUI or R itself that crashes? (i.e, can you run  R in Terminal an 
still crash it? or even RStudio?)
- Is it a Sequoia issue as such? I'm not seeing issues on Monterey/4.4.1 (I'm a 
little superstitious about upgrading production machines mid-semester and some 
of my machines are too old for Sequoia.) The source tarballs 4.4.2 were built 
and tested on Intel/Monterey.
