Research direction
Start by reproducing the crash on Android 14 with the Xperia 1 VI setup described in the issue, then inspect thunderbird-log.txt for the failure path during attachment selection. Use the send-email and attach-file steps as the initial entry point; done means selecting a file no longer force closes the app and an email can proceed with the attachment.
