Switch [Ver. 1.6.15.11] Critical bug: Valuable items consumed as crafting materials (Horse Flute treated as Moss/Jelly)

After the latest update, I noticed that items are being incorrectly consumed during crafting.
As shown in the attached images, my Horse Flute is being counted as Moss/Jelly. Similarly, when crafting a Heavy Furnace, Horse Flute and Field Snack are treated as regular Furnaces.
This can lead to unintended consumption of valuable items. I've seen similar reports from other Switch users, so Switch players should be careful when crafting for now - especially when using the crafting table/workbench.
I also tested this with a different language (Japanese) and the bug still occurs.

Update: I tested cooking and confirmed the same bug occurs in the kitchen. Horse Flute is also treated as Moss when cooking Moss Soup. This suggests the item ID issue affects the entire crafting system, not just the workbench.

Can confirm this is happening on the switch 1 OLED model, and uses other items (confirmed both golden coconut and coffee are used in place of a worm bin and moss to make a deluxe worm bin).

I had similar issues on the Nintendo Switch OLED 1 after the recent update.

I had in my personal inventory a Fairy Box and a Mummified Frog that were consumed when making two heavy furnaces. I also had my first Cinder Shards consumed. I reset the day and it happened three times.

I am not sure what consumed the Cinder Shards because they were consumed the day before at the workbench and I didn't notice them gone until the Fairy Box and Mummified Frog disappeared.

The only thing that stood out was that the Cinder Shards were the last items in the SE chest. On the day they were consumed, I made a Statue of the Dwarf King. I do not know what other inappropriate materials were used.

For clarification, I am playing and testing on the original launch model Switch, not the OLED model.
Based on other reports, it seems items added in ver. 1.6 are involved in this issue.

I am on first gen Switch and I had warp totems consumed instead of moss when crafting deluxe bait. Last week I was trying to craft moss soup and it consumed river jellies.

ETA: This also explains what has been happening to my coffee.

This is super weird, some sort of distinction in item IDs between the PC/mobile/(maybe xbox/ps) versions and the switch, as item IDs in those are rather distinct in 1.6, which would make you believe that there wouldn't be this sort of mixup happening again (like what used to with furniture/deco items being mixed up with regular ones)

Browsing about, it seems to be a very common issue that came with the most recent switch release, so I assume it'll be fixed really soon.
