Still doesn't work for me. Maybe it's line endings or something. I'm on Safari on macOS.

Oh I see, yeah I'm actually experiencing the same on mobile. I'll add some trims and remove line breaks for validation. Also include the stats and reconstruct them before submission so only the text needs to be pasted. thx for the feedback!
