That is probably why the OP asked WHY lua qualified it as too complex.

The OP seems to have taken his time to simplify his original problem
to s simplified test case which exhibits the error. This is a
refreshing change from the too frequent attitude of pasting incomplete
contextless chunks.

I do not know if you are trying to be sarcastic ( doesn't seem like it
to me ) or if you believe that is real code ( which would worry me ) (
it doesn't matter whether it is real or not, just whether you believe
it ). I would like to know ( for context on reading future messages or
any other potential interaction with you ).
