previousIndex unexpectedly jumps with Angular Material drag/drop + cdk virtual scrolling

Question

Using Angular with Angular Material, I've created a sample app that features drag and drop lists, one of which which uses virtual scrolling. However, with certain items, the drop event's previousIndex value suddenly jumps to a different values. I'm baffled.

Steps to Reproduce

Drag the numbers 1 through 10 from the "To do" list to the "Done" list. When the card containing "10" is dropped, the wrong card is transferred, and previousIndex enabling that action jumps from 0 to 1 as seen in the console log.

Code

Stackblitz is here.

HTML

<div class="whole_thing" cdkDropListGroup>

  <div class="example-container">
    <h2>To do (CDK virtual scroll)</h2>

    <div
      cdkDropList
      [cdkDropListData]="todo"
      class="example-list"
      (cdkDropListDropped)="drop($event)">
      <cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport itemSize="62" class="example-viewport">
        <div class="example-box" *cdkVirtualFor="let item of todo" cdkDrag>{{item}}</div>
      </cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport>
    </div>
  </div>

  <div class="example-container">
    <h2>Done (regular list)</h2>

    <div
      cdkDropList
      [cdkDropListData]="done"
      class="example-list"
      (cdkDropListDropped)="drop($event)">
      <div class="example-box" *ngFor="let item of done" cdkDrag>{{item}}</div>
    </div>
  </div>

    this.todo = [...this.todo]
    this.done = [...this.done]
    console.log(this.done)
    console.log(event)
