cy.sample changes static alias value

[KrzGruszcz]

To reproduce:

it("fails", () => {
  cy.visit("https://example.cypress.io");

  cy.get(".home-list ul > li")
    .sample()
    .invoke("text")
    .as("commandName", { type: "static" })
    .then(cy.log);

  cy.get("@commandName").then(cy.log);
});

The yielded commandName value should not change (since it's a static value), but it's changing (parentsUntil vs platform in this example):

Ughh, Cypress keeps calling the sample command for some reason, instead of using the previously returned subject :(

Really weird behavior, need to investigate how to it works under the hood.
