Global Edit never works

No matter what; even if I create a new document with a few squares, and select one of them, Start Global Edit returns: “Global Edit is currently not supported for more than 1000 highlighted objects.”

Looks like an awful bug to me, so what do I do?

macOS Tahoe 26.5.2, Ai 29.3.1

    @UselessUser Can you try to update Illustrator?
