We started building our project in XCode 16 only to find a super weird crash that was 100% reproducible.
I couldn't really understand why it was crashing, so I tried to trim down the problematic piece of code to something that I could provide in a side project. The actual piece of code crashing for us is significantly different, but this small example showcases the crash as well.

our observation is, that this combination of async let usage + struct structure leads to a SIGABRT crash in the concurrency library.
In both the main project and the example project, moving away from async let and using any other concurrency mechanism fixes the crash.
This was reproducible only on Xcode 16 with iOS 15 set as minimum deployment for the target. It works fine on Xcode 15, and if we bump the min deployment to 16 on Xcode 16, it also runs fine. I've attached a small project that reproduces the error.
I'm sure I didn't provide the ideal reproduction scenario, but that's what I managed to trim it down to. Making random changes such as removing some properties from the B struct or remove the: let _ = A().arrayItems.map { _ in "123" } will stop the crash from happening, so I just stopped making changes.
