Not related to hardware, its a race condition. I had the same trap error on first run. And yes, invalid tests are "bad", because it can waste hours of developers time.
You can view it as rude or whatever you wish, but the fact is that after creating at least over 50 invalid reports by now whether it be from dodgy releases/invalid dumps, corrupt files, not trying interpreters/other settings mentioned on the other ID's for a game or whatever it may be. It does use a lot of our time. I have mentioned this in PM before that I had to have people retest dozens of your tests because of these issues.
Examples:

https://forums.rpcs3.net/thread-199330.html - Retested myself as it should've been ingame/playable
https://forums.rpcs3.net/thread-199882.html - I dumped then retested US id just to test if the game regressed, it didn't but required Vulkan to reach intro.
https://forums.rpcs3.net/thread-199104.html - I retested then found out that it was just your game dump was bad, there was no issue with RPCS3 in your original test, you had missing/modified game files.
https://forums.rpcs3.net/thread-199698.html - Another game I retested because the test was questionable

That's not even counting all the bad Playable reports though, for instance South Park the Stick of Truth which you played for maybe 1 minute before saying it was playable. After ~2minutes of gameplay you have to input your character's name and the keyboard functionality doesn't work.

Or other games which ran at 5fps for you but you still reported them as "playable"

The worst part is, I only spent about 6 minutes looking for these "bad" reports, I know there is a lot more.
Feel free to call me out if I ever do a bad report, but to my knowledge after two years of tests I haven't put any games into Nothing/Loadable/Intro when they actually progressed further.
The nothing category in particular is very important to test everything all settings with multiple times.
