Microsoft's Feedback Hub now crashes my UWP app

The Feedback Hub worked perfectly since I launched my app months ago. Suddenly I tested launching it from within my app so that I could go directly to the feedback hub page for my app and the app just crashed. So then I launched my app in debug mode and tried it again. The app simply crashes with no debug information.

Is this somehow related to me updating to the October update of Windows 10? Or maybe me extending my app's compatibility to Windows 10 1809 (17763)? I like NEVER touched the code that launches the feedback hub and so it is not my doing. This is the code:

if (Microsoft.Services.Store.Engagement.StoreServicesFeedbackLauncher.IsSupported())
{
   var feedbackLauncher = Microsoft.Services.Store.Engagement.StoreServicesFeedbackLauncher.GetDefault();
   await feedbackLauncher.LaunchAsync();
}

The temporary workaround is to package your app using VS 2019 preview edition, the issue does not repro here.
