Fusion freezes when debossing text wrapped around a cylinder

Edit: Just to be clear, this is meant to be a bug report. I don't need text that is this deeply embossed, but it often happens by unintentionally when modifying the depth, or first clicking "Deboss". I've had to close the unresponsive program and restart it several times due to this issue.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start a new project.
2. Create > Cylinder > select the XY plane > set the center of the cylinder to the origin > set the diameter to 3.4 mm > set the height to 20 mm.
3. Create > Create Sketch > select the YZ plane.
4. Create > Text > draw a rectangle across the center of the cylinder (make its width about twice that of the cylinder, and its height about a third its width) > set the "Text" field to "testing" > set "Height" to 1.00 mm > OK > Finish Sketch.
5. Create > Emboss > set "Sketch Profiles" to the text sketch > set "Faces" to the side face of the cylinder > ensure "Depth" is 2.00 mm > click "Deboss".
At least for me, the application immediately freezes upon clicking the "Deboss" button. It doesn't give an error or anything like that; it just stops responding.
I have been able to successfully get debossed text wrapped around the cylinder by first decreasing "Depth" to something super small like 0.1 mm, then clicking "Deboss" (which turns my "0.1 mm" into "-0.1 mm"). As I slowly decrease the depth (e.g. to -0.2 mm, -0.3 mm, and so on), everything is fine until the different parts of the debossed text start colliding in the center. That's about when the application stops responding. Perhaps there is some sort of division by zero issue going on as the debossed text approaches the center?
