BufferGeodetic() causing field maps to fail

I am using BufferGeodetic() in an arcade expression since our maps are in Web Mercator. When creating line features in Field Maps, the program crashes after adding a single point (i.e. I press ‘Add Point’ once and everything freezes). The Field Map Troubleshooting Log showed the following messages:

When I changed the expression to use Buffer() instead of BufferGeodetic(), I was able to digitize lines in field maps without any issues, though it produces inaccurate results.

I was wondering if anyone had run into a similar issue and if there was a way around it without reprojecting our data. The issue only seems to occur with the geodetic buffer, and not with geodetic distance/length functions.

Thanks!
