If the live version is already broken, there isn't much to lose deploying the fix as soon as possible. Not sure what else they could have done here.
Yup. Shits fucked. Do what you can. Lol
There are likely other changes made since they released that version to their customers, so the risk is other things in addition to the current thing get broken.
There is zero chance that they'll just build from the latest main branch and release that tomorrow. Or that whatever build they make goes directly to general distribution.
They'll make a build from the last release plus this patch and send it to a few customers who have complained. Then they'll think about making a release with this and perhaps other bug fixes.
If the Microsoft person making this request can’t update a command line switch, I seriously doubt they will try to build from source with a patch.
