Confirming running these same tests as the Reporter did on iPad 5th gen hardware and latest iOS.
Adding that testing this morning with new 1.2.41 update, there is still a crash at "building terrain" when creating a default new world. However, there is no longer a recurring crash loop, after initial create world crash, when trying to open Minecraft up again. So there is no longer a need to delete and reinstall, but there is still a crash on create world.
