Description
See https://codepen.io/emmanuelle-plotly/pen/MWweqey?editable=true and hover: customdata[0] takes all the values whereas it should only take the first one. Is there a problem with the format of customdata?

Raised by https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60158618/plotly-how-to-add-elements-to-hover-data-using-plotly-express-piechart (also see https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/issues/2210).

Research direction
Start with the linked CodePen reproduction and inspect the hover behavior for go.Pie customdata, then compare the related plotly.py issue 2210 and the Stack Overflow report. The work is done when each customdata value is handled per data point as expected, with the reproduction no longer showing all values through customdata[0].
