FirebaseError: Failed to get document because the client is offline

Question

I am using React 16.13.1

I'm trying to get a document from the 'List' collection. If I comment out lines 15 through 24 and uncomment line 25 it will work.

However, as it is I am getting this error: "FirebaseError: Failed to get document because the client is offline."

The parameter being passed to getDoc() on line 24 is the same as line 25.

Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can get the getDoc() function to work when using line 18?

Update: I've noticed that I can make calls to the database with no error but only after signing in do I get the error "FirebaseError: Failed to get document because the client is offline"

I had the same issue whenever my console was open in chrome in dev mode. Since updating to firebase 7.15.1 I have not had this issue.
