Description

We have solved many of these but we did not write regression tests for them. This issue should serve as a list of those PRs so we can add regression tests later. This is important because those errors are easy to miss (it just changing lists to numpy arrays!) so I think it is good to have regression tests here:

List:

  • #3426
  • #3388

There were some more related to concatenation that I would fetch later.

Research direction

Start by reviewing PRs #3426 and #3388 to identify the integer-overflow fixes and the code paths they changed. Find the corresponding test locations, then add regression coverage for those cases and the related concatenation issues mentioned in the list. Done means the tests fail without the fixes and pass with them.
