Book and Quill repeatedly copies old pages onto the current one while trying to edit

I have a book with coordinates and descriptions in my survival world. On page 23, I had some information written before the update. I edited that page, beginning a new entry. When I tried to edit that page again with coordinates, it copied my entire page 1 onto page 23 and made me edit that, deleting the old information on page 23 . After this kept happening, I decided page 23 was the problem and entered all of the lost information onto page 24 (I used an instant replay to see old info). I then added my new entry. Today, while I was trying to add another entry onto page 24, it copied page 10 onto page 24 and made me edit that. This is very infuriating, and it seems I might have to start using some other way of recording information and coordinates after over 3 years of using the same book and quill.

Upon further testing, the book only copies left side (odd) pages to left side (odd) pages and only copies right side (even) pages to right side pages.

Bug showing a pattern: open book and edit twice to copy, then edit a different page to paste?

It is not just this book that has the problem:

Bug only works when you turn page using controller bumpers:

Bug works in brand new world as well:
