I had none of these problems before the last two updates so these bugs have clearly been introduced. I suspect there are some issues either with old series links from multiple channels not being merged correctly when the update converted them to All channel or some other bug with Series Link+ not working.
Often this is the "Latent bug". A change of code deactivates the bug and the programmer assumes it's fixed but it doesn't go away. Further changes then re-activate it as the original bug was never fixed. It's a familiar problem in a complex code build.
