Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Chrome on version 12.16.1: delete the Sepolia network and observe the repeated “No custom network client was found with the ID” errors. Trace the deletion flow and the repeated error source; done means deleting Sepolia no longer produces non-stop console errors or Sentry spam.
