Actual value was 40.

I was trying to copy earlier output while scrolled up, but clicking kept sending me back to the bottom. I had opted to select everything from the bottom up to the text I wanted to copy and was adjusting the selection position with the arrow keys when the error occurred.
Expected behavior
PowerShell should not freeze for a moment, becoming unresponsive for some seconds, then spit out the error.
