Overriding one element inside a slot marks the entire slot as overridden

When overriding a single element inside a slot in a component instance, Figma marks the entire slot as overridden. As a result, updates made to the main component no longer propagate to any elements inside that slot — even if only one element in the slot was actually changed.

 

Expected behavior
Only the modified element should be treated as overridden.
All other elements inside the slot should remain linked to the main component and continue to receive updates.
