A whole bunch of persons didn’t get their person_created_at column properly migrated so it’s defaulting to a 1970 creation date which is skewing the lifecycle query results since it's attempting to use the new column

@neilkakkar Think we should flag lifecycle separately for this reason?

Damn. Yeah, makes sense.

Do you know if the same happens on self-hosted?
