"Settled Mind" feat does not work on books

[Lazarus]

I'm expecting the new feat "Settled Mind" to reduce the time for full book research by 20%. However the total amount of time remains the same, but now requires an extra research action.

For example, an archery book usually requires 5 hours of research. While having "settled mind", I now click on "Research" 6 times (instead of 5) and the time for full book read is still 5 hours. In other words, without the feat you need to do 5x 1h reads, with the feats it's 6x 50mins. The screenshot below shows how you still need one more "Research" even though it says you've completed all 5 hours.

Good catch... seems like perhaps a bug.
I'd recommend submitting a support ticket.

Even perhaps adding your findings to the following thread:
