I believe the Object Merge SOP is no-longer functioning - it is even broken in the operator snippets area.
While I can accurately target SOPs inside of a geo, they do not hold onto their transformed values. Also, you can no longer use a geo/null comp as the transform object… and if you specificy a SOP… the merge entirely disappears?
I am using build 2022.24200 & Windows 10 Pro for workstations.
