The fix is quite simple. In version 2, when loadTable() is used with both an assignment and a callback function, the callback function needs to return whatever value should be assigned. This is the case in this sketch:

table = await loadTable('/assets/bubbles.csv', ',', 'header', loadData);

So the function loadData(table) needs to have a line return table; added to the very end.
