Card-Mod errors when user visits /config/areas

[kulmegil]

My Home Assistant version: 2024.3.2

My lovelace configuration method (GUI or yaml):
GUI (not relevant)

What I am doing:
Opening "Areas & Zones" section in config

What I expected to happen:
no errors

What happened instead:

• JS errors
• high CPU consumption

Minimal steps to reproduce:

1. open /config/areas

Error messages from the browser console:

NOTE:
yep, this's not a mistake.
Card-mod is attempting to bind to a ... string (equal to HA instance host) instead of html element.
This is a result of Area config view containing <ha-card> elements being inside <a> links.

Card-mod is trying to retrieve shadow root's host element by taking .host property out of parent element.
However since parent element is just a <a> element (without shadow DOM) then .host returns part of target url (string).

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: can't assign to property "setConfig" on "homeassistant.local:8123": not an object
