  -- TODO(AK): This is such a bad approach. If you add a temp field and forget to delete it like those above, it persists to next try
  --           We should just have pre-saved version of the scenario data when it is first loaded (clean slate) and deepCopy that one instead
  --           of tweaking a used one with all sorts of modified state.
