Comment:

 Oh wait... I didn't realize that we fixed an assert crash for
 `BridgeAuthority` and SR in 031 but not in 030. See commit
 931948ac6ad0c6f5327fd3c212ce6fe241a071f1 released in 031.

 #21586 is what you are hitting. It has not been backported to 030 because
 users in general don't use the `Authoritative` options except in testing.

 So removing any kind of "Authoritative" options will fix this.

 Closing and marking as duplicate.
