Won't let me claim both (personal and professional) licenses for Limited-Time Free assets

Summary

A few weeks ago I could claim both the personal license and the professional license for the limited-time free assets.

Now, whenever I get the personal license for the asset, if I select the professional license to try to claim it as well, it just says “Download” instead of giving a “Buy now” button.

(Situation occurs vice-versa as well.)

This is an issue because the personal license is worse than the professional license and I would have just gone ahead and claimed the professional license if I knew it would not let me claim both.

I just realized that someone else already posted about this issue here: Can't get the Professional license if I already got the Personal one for Giveaway assets

I missed that because I didn’t realize I was looking through the unreal engine tag for posts (Topics tagged unreal-engine) instead of the fab tag section.
