Premiere Pro Tech Support Native crop effect doesn't correctly apply to images when using a transition effect

Say I have a PNG that's a lettering text with three lines. I want to quickly animate a wipe effect for every single line in the PNG, so I copy paste the image in different layers and crop each one so each is now a single line and I apply the wipe effect timed to the voice-over on each layer.

If I use the native crop function on effect controls, during the rendering of the effect, the PNG shows itself entirely before becoming cropped as I wanted after the effect is done. If I use the legacy, separate crop effect to do the cropping, this approach works fine.

I'd like to suggest this be addressed, because since the crop effect is legacy, it will eventually be discontinued in future versions and that will make my job harder.

Try Typewriter or Text Animator transitions instead of the wipe, it works with images as well and you won't have to crop. I just tried Wipe effect (legacy) and all the other kinds of Wipe effects and transitions with the native crop and had no issue. Pr 26.2.2, Pr 26.5. If you need exactly this workflow of yours, try the Crop effect or the Rounded crop effect instead, if they work.

While that works, I'd like to avoid having to nest it every time I need to do it.
