Description

**Describe the bug**
Toggling a checkbox causes checkboxes on other days to be toggled too.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Add a checkbox to two consecutive days
2. Toggle it on day one
3. Switch to day two, it will be toggled there as well

**Expected behavior**
I expect the state of checkboxes to be isolated.

Research direction

No source file or test is named in the issue. Reproduce the problem by adding the same checkbox on two consecutive days, toggling it on the first day, and switching days; trace where checkbox state is stored and keyed. Done means toggling a checkbox on one day no longer changes its counterpart on another day, while the reproduction steps pass.
