Huge Observability Plus spend because of Vercel Workflows being tracked as "External API Requests"?

Hi everyone! I have since disabled Observability Plus, but it seems like Vercel Workflow requests get tracked as "External API Requests," which unnecessarily inflates the cost of Observability Plus. For instance, our top origin routes for this metric on one of our projects are: * /.well-known/workflow/v1/flow: \~574.4M * /.well-known/workflow/v1/step: \~23.8M Is there a reason behind this, or is this an issue/oversight? If it helps at all, for context we use SvelteKit.
