Tristan trapped underground - AR-126589

Just out of curiosity: https://outerworlds2.obsidian.net/issue-tracker#4fXOqTjt-unable-to-complete-a-companion-quest-due-to-tristan-appearing-underground-on-the-incognito-ar-126589

I wonder if this is a repeat of the "infinite ladder" bug in The Outer Worlds that Taylor posted about?  Is Tristan in the middle of some kind of furniture action (in particularly, has he entered the ladder) when the player starts speaking to another companion (and so he can't exit, and is climbing underground)?
