Logic App Designer crashes when host run time is unavailable without an actionable message

[acornsoft]

Describe the Bug with repro steps

1. Existing Workflow created in Designer, ContactsProcessor
2. Open n Code view (works)
3. Open in Designer view (does not work)

Created a new Workflow, that uses the same code, ContactsProcessor2 (and ContactsProcessor3)

1. Copy the CODE from the initial ContactsProcessor
2. Cut/Paste into the CODE window of ContactsProcessor2
3. Initially, the Designer is able to open. In Fact, when I do this all the previous one's also work.
4. Then after a few minutes, they ALL are unable to open in Designer again

What type of Logic App Is this happening in?

Standard (Portal)
