Description

**Describe the bug**

Trusted Checkpoint Failing to Initialize.

**Expected behavior**

Within the *Trusted Checkpoint* input, I'm supposed to input the Block Root hash and its supposed to produce the below image...

Instead it shows:

Research direction

Reproduce the failure in the light-client-demo.lodestar.casa Trusted Checkpoint input using the beaconcha.in block root workflow and the linked video. Trace the initialization entry point from the input through the reported “Epoch is not a number: NaN” error. Done means a valid block root initializes successfully and displays the expected checkpoint result.
