Blueprint Math Expression Node Crashes Editor 2024 UE 5.3

I am having a lot issues (more like impossible to use) with the math expression node in blueprint.

Using the node consistently crashes the editor if you try to edit the expression in the node.
It will crash the editor reliably, and especially if an incorrect formula is entered. I never used to have these issues.

If I can get it to work and accept a correct formula, if I need to change the formula, it will reliably crash the editor. I have had to resort to using straight blueprint nodes instead of usig the Math Expression Node.

All results came up from back in 2016 etc. Am I the only one having these issues?
Is this a known bug expected to be fixed in 5.4?

Same here (5.3). I simply don’t use it anymore.

Same for me too, (5.3)

Unfortunately, Math Expressions have been broken since UE4, and Epic really doesn’t seem to be doing anything about it. I’ve never had them crash my project before, but they do completely glitch out on me at random, destroying all of my connected pins. Its a real drag because they are convenient to use, but there doesn’t really seem to be anything that can be done about it at this point.
