ChatGPT Dots bug: downgraded Dot sleeps but keeps messaging, can't be deleted

After downgrading from Dots-enabled Pro to Plus, an enabled Dot goes to sleep yet keeps sending unanswerable messages and can't be deleted; the user now runs Muse as their personal agent.

If you downgrade ChatGPT from Dots-available Pro to no-Dots Plus and have a Dot enabled, it goes to sleep, but keeps sending you messages to which you can’t reply, and you can’t delete the Dot. OpenAI, this seems like a bug. PS: I still use Dots in my Enterprise account for work, but I use Muse for my personal agent, and I don’t want two personal agents because I tried that and it’s way too noisy.
