I did, yes - or rather I put it behind a UA check. I've just put up a reproducible case behind a query-string flag - see edit above.

This does cause a crash on my iPhone XR running iOS 14.5

I confirm not crashing for me on MacOS Mojave with Safari 14.1:

That's interesting - so a Mobile Safari issue but not a desktop one. Cheers.

I confirm I can trigger the bug in iOS 14.5 on my iPhone 11. Interestingly, the first time I click on "From" or "To" I get a forced refresh.

It's crashing both times, it's just that the first time, Safari reloads the page. The second time, it gives you the "repeatedly" crashing message.

That's not surprising, I've seen a lot of cases where Mobile Safari has different bugs than the desktop one.

OP said the bug appeared on iOS 14.5

The main linked article is about Safari 14.1 on MacOS. If it is "exactly the same issue" as OP says, then how come it doesn't appear on Safari 14.1 on MacOS?

It's probably not a Safari bug.
