[iOS on expo 52] - Swipe-Back Animates Last Card, Then Jumps Another Card Back Without Animation, Breaking Swiper! (Might be the latest version of React Native)

[ShmuelPickRanky]

On iOS with Expo SDK 52, using the swipe-back gesture results in the following critical issue:

1. The last card animates back correctly.
2. Immediately after, the swiper skips an additional card backward without animation.
3. The swiper becomes unresponsive to further interactions.

NOTE: This happens regardless of the infinite prop value. If the swiper is on the first card, swiping back unexpectedly takes it to the last card instead of stopping at the beginning. This severely impacts usability on iOS.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Swipe a card back using the swipe-back gesture.
2. Observe that the card animates back correctly.
3. Notice that it skips another card backward without animation and the swiper becomes unresponsive.

Expected Behavior:
The swiper should stop at the previous card with no unexpected jumps and remain responsive to further actions.

Environment:
Expo SDK: 52
Platform: iOS
Library Version: react-native-deck-swiper v2.0.17

This is a critical bug for swipe-back functionality. Any help or fix would be greatly appreciated!
If needed, I can provide additional context or examples to help debug this issue.

Code example:

import {
    useSafeAreaInsets,
} from 'react-native-safe-area-context';
import { Text } from 'react-native-paper';
import { useState, useEffect, useRef } from 'react';
import { View, StyleSheet, Dimensions, Image, Platform } from 'react-native';
import { LinearGradient } from 'expo-linear-gradient';
import Swiper from 'react-native-deck-swiper';

const { width, height } = Dimensions.get('window');

const CardsSwiper = () => {
    const swiperRef = useRef(null);
    const [cards] = useState([
        { id: '1', text: 'Card 1' },
        { id: '2', text: 'Card 2' },
        { id: '3', text: 'Card 3' },
        { id: '4', text: 'Card 4' },
        { id: '5', text: 'Card 5' },
        { id: '6', text: 'Card 6' },
    ]);
    const [measurements, setMeasurements] = useState(null);
    const { top, bottom } = useSafeAreaInsets();
    const headerHeight = Platform.select({ android: top + 56, ios: top + 44 });
    const tabHeight = bottom + 49;

    useEffect(() => {
        setMeasurements({
            width: width,
            height: height - headerHeight - tabHeight,
        });
    }, [top]);

    if (!measurements) {
        return null;
    }

    return (
        <View style={{ width: measurements.width, height: measurements.height }}>
            <Swiper
                ref={swiperRef}
                cards={cards}
                keyExtractor={(card) => card.id}
                renderCard={(card) => (
                    <View style={styles.cardContainer}>
