Description
### Describe the bug
Dropping wielded items takes an extremely long time.
### Attach save file
[VINNY METROPOLIS!-trimmed.tar.gz](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/26614545/VINNY.METROPOLIS.-trimmed.tar.gz)
### Steps to reproduce
1. Load the save.
2. Drop the wielded saber.
### Expected behavior
I expected dropping the wielded item to take a short amount of time. This is because dropping wielded items had been fast previously.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by loading the attached VINNY METROPOLIS save on the listed Windows 11 game version and reproduce dropping the wielded saber. Trace the wielded-item drop path and identify why the action is unusually slow; it is done when dropping that item returns to the previously short duration without regressing ordinary item drops.
