Question Is WS+ layers glitchy with powerable items?

I added this builder into my layer but whenever I try to move the layer with the machine in it, the game just freezes. Actually I can move the layer but the game freezes when I let go.
I vaguely remember kingath saying something about not using machines with layers or clone tool in one of his videos, I searched but I couldn't find it to confirm.
 
Can confirm the scenario is problematic, especially wiring across layers can corrupt the grid and any wiring set up when creating a blueprint will be broken upon replication. Batteries or tiny generators for machines (SOE and Homemaker has these) with easily rewired connections recommended (perhaps conduits are best). WRK has some self-powered wire connectors that transmit 10 power iirc. Also grabbing and releasing connected conveyors will pop them in correctly so they get electricity. Not exactly the problem you have but likely related.

(This is probably known and discouraged but for posterity and SEO...)
