I can't replicate this on Linux, or on an M1 macbook.
Is this with a tabbed script editor, or in single-script-per-window mode?
I have just put up new snapshots, which might make a difference.

It is in a single-script-per-window mode.
I just downloaded the latest version (build date 2022-06-20) and it crashed just the
same.
