Previously, the default catalog's models were only added when there was no override at all.\n\n**Why** This prevents models from disappearing from the picker just because a flag-based catalog override is active, keeping the full set of available models visible.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
