That seems correct, but why mention this now?

I am not sure why you mention this now either. You seem to be describing 
how the problem occurs without actually mentioning what the problem is.

I think that it would be better to first mention this crash, i.e. the 
problem, how you recreate it, and then describe how and why it happens, 
and then tell us how you will fix it.
