🐞 Bug report: Page Transitions Uncaught SyntaxError

[mcrowell]

Prerequisites

• I have searched for similar issues in both open and closed tickets and cannot find a duplicate.
• The issue still exists against the latest stable version of Elementor.

Description

When Page Transitions are used there is a Javascript error.
Uncaught SyntaxError: Identifier 'a' has already been declared (at instant-page.min.js?ver=3.7.3:1:1)

Steps to reproduce

Activate Page Transitions and view the browser Console to see the error.

Isolating the problem

• This bug happens with only Elementor plugin active (and Elementor Pro).
• This bug happens with a Blank WordPress theme active (Hello theme).
• I can reproduce this bug consistently using the steps above.

I'm getting this error on one of our sites and it's rendered the elementor builder completely useless.
