You used something DIFFERENT (a partial implementation) so different 
results -

Thats fine; its just not this particular workaround! 

I think you misread a code comment, now edited for clarity....

Thats what the last part does: close (delete) any ADDITIONAL 
problematic main stacks in memory -

(NOT the build stack again!) - to avoid subsequent dialogs.

Then ... smooth building, here, ever since.

Your auto detection effort would be very useful, but just manually 
identify the SPECIFIC problem stacks, per the dialogs  and delete the 
MAIN stacks thereof in the code.

If more than a couple main stacks to delete, I would use repeat with a 
test or try. Likewise, the isBuildingStandalone() function from Panos 
could provide a more specific closestack trigger if needed for splash 
stack, but I havent tried it in this workaround.

Whether behaviors or other issues could ever require an extra step, 
obviously we CAN enjoy the same build experience as pre-2020 SB, by 
simply using the same techniques! Just as I have.

YES! Reported (again) to LC yet?

It is a bug/defect, but that was denied at the time.
