Sequence of events:
1) Create a machine with children (either one or multiple of the same type)
2) Create an actor and initialize the children machines through events of their parent
3) Call getPersistsedSnapshot
4) Try to create new actor from that snapshot
5) If you reuse the same object, actor works fine and you can call getPersistedSnapshot on a new actor
6) If you don't reuse it, and instead go through JSON.parse(JSON.serialize(...)), getPersistedSnapshot crashes when calling on a new actor.
