Observations stuck at Needs ID

I have two observations where despite 3 ids system says you need two ids to get RG, one of them had a GBIF tab, but it disappeared:

I nudged the first observation with an id (now removed), that seemed to fix it. I though the taxon might have had a taxon change but none are listed, perhaps the genus (or higher) was re-grafted at some point? Interestingly the identification Algorithm Summary doesn’t even show for the second observation, it’s as if the identifications don’t exist.

Definitely some kind of error in the taxonomy because they didn’t have any community ID.

Sounds like this bug:
https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/community-taxon-doesnt-exist-even-though-there-is-more-than-1-id-rumina-decollata/19220

as a remedy, I often go to data quality assessment and use the button “No, it’s as good as it can be” which mostly solves the issue.

Well, I did it, it’s shown in the screenshot, it’s not the case here, it’s the same as topic where new id solves it, but I wanted it to be investigated, not just have a new id.
