Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash on the Android client using the Xiaomi Mi A2, Android 9, and the listed steps: quote a message after it explodes. Investigate the quote-message entry point and verify that quoting exploded messages no longer crashes the client, including the case with multiple system messages.
