Distributor throws an error in WordPress 6.5 RC 3's new synced patterns editor

[laurelfulford]

Describe the bug

WordPress 6.5 is introducing a new flow for editing synced patterns. Instead of editing them in the current post/page, they're opened in a new editor window. This editor is throwing an error when Distributor is enabled.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Start on a test site running WP 6.5 RC 3 and Distributor.
2. Edit a post/page, and create a new synced pattern.
3. Click on the synced pattern, and then click 'Edit original' in the block toolbar to open the synced pattern in the new editor.
4. Make edits and save them -- best I can tell they save fine!
5. Click the 'back' button to return to the post/page editor; note that the error displays there initially, too.
