I would do It, but I am concerned about the bus factor, so I would prefer to train someone else.

```
1. I first run bitcoind -prune=1024 -stopatheight=840000 -datadir=empty_dir, then there is some block files in empty_dir/blocks.
2. Then I copy empty_dir to empty_dir2, run bitcoind -prune=1024 -stopatheight=840050 -datadir=empty_dir2
Compare two blocks dir, I now have some blk.dat files relects height 840000 to 840050.

I can confirm this issue on Ubuntu 24.04 with the system's Qt 6.4.2.
However, a static build using Qt 6.7.3 from depends works perfectly. Perhaps this Qt issue was resolved upstream at some point?
