No problem.

Right.

With the coordination already required, you can just upload to
experimental and I/we can schedule the test if you ping us.

Great.

The most obvious alternative is that your run it locally, but I guess
you tried and couldn't reproduce?

We have given DD's temporarily access to one of our workers before. If
you're interested we could do that again for this case. That way you
could even skip the upload to experimental, assuming it reproduces if
run from a local tree. And you can check what's going on in the test bed.
