It's not rare at all, they stopped the Tax credit amendments last year.
I will pay no heed to your advice because I stand by my assertion, you cannot have an unelected house dictate policy to an elected house which is essentially what they do, they won't pass legislation and insist on their amendments until they get what they want and it goes back and forth in game of ping pong.
