Only if it has no record of that does it go back to the model the session started with. Before, it always went back to the starting model.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf you changed models partway through a session, a temporary swap no longer undoes your choice.\n\n- Area: Models\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
