Firefox: Reader View shows the wrong text

In some pages, redaer view shows the wrong text -- it looks like it picks up text from a hyperlink. An example is this page:

    https://www.britannica.com/biography/Pee-Wee-Russell

where Reader View shows the text from:

    https://www.britannica.com/art/clarinet

(which is linked inside).

I am using Firefox 134.0 on MacOS (Sequoia 15.2)

URL of this page is changing during scrolling. You pressed the Reader View button when it was already changed to /clarinet.

I don't think so. I clicked on Reader View right away, without scrolling. As you can see, it gets the page title right, but picks up the text from the other page:

Here's a better screenshot and I'm able to replicate the issue. Just going to the page and then clicking reader view does show the wrong text, but refreshing the page fixes the issue. Bug or not to bug?

Helpful?
