Nested Grid/Auto Layout inside Grid cell forces Fill → Fixed on resize (“Width set to Fixed…”)

Hi! I’m seeing a consistent layout behavior that looks like a bug/limitation in Figma’s Grid + nested layout sizing.

Problem
When a frame uses Grid layout, and a Grid row/cell contains a nested Auto Layout or another Grid, resizing the parent frame causes children inside that nested container to automatically switch from Width: Fill container to Fixed width. Figma shows a toast like: “Width set to Fixed for [Component A] and [Component B]”.
