The first place to troubleshoot issues for this problem is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help_talk:CS1 . I would recommend asking there for help. A skim of your modules does not indicate any particular issues that should not have shown up from a long time ago, but it is possible that a long time ago you synched modules that had a bug or synched modules that don't go together. cc @Trappist_the_monk

I've also added CT Team because they've been working in a related area, Just In Case.

Yes, the sync issue makes sense. I yesterday imported a few modules and templates any of those may be causing issues.
Anyway, posted also it on the mentioned place, https://w.wiki/5i6Y

Not a problem with MW software per discussion at Help talk:CS1.
