Hello, all--

Preface: I know that I should use [id://###] and not [node://###] to refer to a node, but I occasionally forget. (I always know that only one is correct, but I keep misremembering which one it is.) I had always found that one works--until today.

Anyway, the oddity is this: I used the wrong one (node) on both Re^5: Split process->check ->and run Parallel and Re^3: UnixDate - getting a different date. For Re^5: Split process->check ->and run Parallel it worked just fine (as usual), but for Re^3: UnixDate - getting a different date it renders as [node:// 732632|your question]. Since node is clearly incorrect, I'm not reporting it as a bug. But I am curious why it worked differently in the two nodes.
