OpenTofu v1.8.10. Source highlight: OpenTofu will no longer crash in a rare case where a dynamically-invalid expression has its error suppressed by `try` or `can` and then that expression becomes relevant for deciding whether to report a "change outside of OpenTofu" in the human-oriented plan diff.
