P: Default Metadata shows Original and Cropped as same dimensions

Good work @johnrellis 

Thanks.

Here's a screen recording that shows a step-by-step recipe for reproducing the problem in LR 11.3.1 / Mac OS 11.6.2:

I have done further checking with other users who are experiencing this bug and it is apparent that it affects users who do not have "Automatically write metadata to xmp" selected in Catalog settings.

That option is not the default in LrC and therefore does not provide any relief.
I also find it strange there is no update in Adobe Camera Raw plug-in to match 14.3.1 in LrC.

I am still experiencing this problem on both my computers an iMac and a Windows PC. The problem started with LrC 11.3 and continues in LrC 11.3.1.

The info on my tests are described in the thread at the link below.

Two people report that 11.3.1 hasn't fixed this bug, even after they deleted Helper.lrdata (on the theory it contained staled metadata):

An update to the Lightroom Classic (Version 11.3.1) was released on 4/20/2022 and contains (2) bug fixes.

Bob Somrak and I have observed on Mac that exiting LR and deleting "<catalog> Helper.lrdata" causes Cropped in the Metadata > Default tagset to display correctly, at least temporarily.   

It would appear that the performance improvements in 11.3 to make Metadata display faster rely on cached information in Helper.lrdata (like folder counts), and that caching may be a little glitchy.

Also to add, I can recrop the problem photos and it does not correct the issue.
