Comment (by andrewserong):

 > I have a lead on this problem specifically. I'm going to confirm today
 and spin off a separate ticket since I believe the issue is unique to
 Footnotes.

 In case it's related, there was a bug fix for an issue with the Footnotes
 logic and how it recurses into block attributes over in
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/53257, which didn't make it
 into 6.3.0, but is slated for 6.3.1. I'm not sure if it's the exact issue
 reported here, but might be worth checking to see if that bugfix addresses
 the issue for anyone?
