+    //! @bug This actor is not fully initialized until the required object dependency is loaded.
+    //! In most cases, the check for objBankIndex to equal requiredObjBankIndex prevents the actor
+    //! from drawing until initialization is complete. However if the required object is the same as the
+    //! object dependency listed in init vars (gameplay_keep in this case), the check will pass even though
+    //! initialization has not completed. When this happens, it will try to draw the display list of the
+    //! first entry in `D_80998134`, which will likely crash the game.
+    //! This only matters in very specific scenarios, when the door is unculled on the first possible frame
+    //! after spawning. It will try to draw without having run update yet.
+    //!
+    //! The best way to fix this issue (and what was done in Majora's Mask) is to null out the draw function in
+    //! the init vars for the actor, and only set draw after initialization is complete.
