The result of that change should be only that we *don't* fake the tree item in certain uncommon cases - it certainly shouldn't be causing wider problems like this. My understanding is that we should be able to, e.g. randomly not fake the tree 10% of the time without causing problems as it is an optimization only, so I'm not sure why adding *any* extra condition at all would break things like this. Is TRY_TO_FAKE_THIS_ITEM ever more than an optimization? Does anyone else know why *not* faking the tree could cause problems?
