Hmmm, that seems like quite a laborious workaround.
It is indeed a laborious, and data-destructive, workaround. The problem has been around for so long that the workaround has acquired a name, the “Plex Dance.”
Plex has given us very mild assurance that they are working on a solution, but they don’t discuss timelines, so we have no idea how long it will be.
