Nested Repeater Fields with Pagination Enabled Do Not Save Correctly

提供されたネストされた Repeater JSON から始め、両方の Repeater フィールドでページネーションを使用して、WordPress バックエンドで保存フローを再現します。保存前とページを再度開いた後のネストされた値を比較します。内側の Repeater の内容が保持され、正しく表示されれば完了です。Issue ではソースファイルもテストも指定されていないため、関連する保存パスの特定と回帰テストのカバレッジ追加には、プロジェクトの調査が必要です。

Describe the bug
When two nested ACF fields (both of type Repeater) have the option "pagination": 1 enabled, the inner field content is no longer saved correctly. The data appears to be lost or overwritten during save.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a Repeater field (Parent Repeater).
2. Inside this field, add another Repeater field (Child Repeater).
3. Enable "pagination": 1 for both Repeater fields.
4. Add content to both fields in the WordPress backend.
5. Save the post.
6. Reopen the post and check the values — the inner Repeater content is missing or not saved correctly.

Expected behavior
The values entered in both nested Repeater fields (with pagination enabled) should be saved and displayed correctly after saving the post.

Screenshots or Video
N/A — the issue is data-related and occurs upon save.
