Description

bug_case.zip
I've attached a zip file containing a test file and pattern for reproduction.

Demo screenshots:
broken
working

The test_data field gets dropped from the parsed data if it is used via a template variable, if the template variable is removed and replaced by parent.parent.head.test_data, it works as expected, also, if the test_enum type is replaced with u8 it also works as expected.

Research direction

Start by extracting bug_case.zip and reproducing the missing test_data field with the template variable and the defined test_enum type. Compare that result with the working parent.parent.head.test_data and u8 variants; done means the parsed data retains test_data in the enum-template case.
