Times request silently failed

This was the API response, the problem is that stop is unexpectedly an array:

Why didn’t the issue close based on the commit message? 🤔

I submitted feedback and got this answer:

Unfortunately this is a known bug that occurs between 12:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m. the day of a schedule change. During this time, the API can return two representations of the same stop, one from the schedule that is ending, and one from the schedule that is beginning the day of the schedule change. At this time, there is no timeline for a resolution to this issue.

It makes sense at least, sad that there’s no plan for a fix!
