Browser Safari 17.1

Problem description For https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/1005, on both screens and in all scenes, if only one object is in the play area, switching which variable (ex. x1 or x2 )is assigned to which object (ex. house or person) doesn't change the label in the distance statement. This isn't an issue when both objects are in the play area.

Steps to reproduce Here is an example:

1. In the first scene of the Explore screen, place the house on -3 --The distance statement will show an x1 above the -3.
2. Switch the objects, so that the house is now x2. -- The distance statement will not show "x2" above -3. Instead it still has "x1" above x1.
