Fallout New Vegas is very good! Which is why I'm kinda surprised that this bug, small as it seems, never got fixed. Then again we live in the world where skyrim still has some day one bugs in it despite like 11 releases.

Thank you for giving me the space to air a near 13 year long personal frustration.

Here's the mod I use, though there are a few you can shop around with. I've heard the unofficial patch might work too, and I think Tale of Two Wastelands settles the issue (or maybe makes it worse tbh)

I think the distinction in the mods is between how they interact with other features or try and clean up more texture issues, etc.
