Research direction

Reproduce the issue on an iOS arm64 nightly build using a GBA game: load cheats, then toggle and untoggle one to observe the freeze. The report names no affected core, logs, reproduction steps, or source files; done would require identifying the cause, preventing the freeze, and verifying cheat toggling works on the reported platform.
