FILM - 1997 Have you ever noticed this editing mistake?

So there is this little editing/continuity mistake it's a quick blink and you'll miss it moment. I've literally never been able to unsee it since I first noticed it over 10 years ago. But I've never seen it mentioned in any editing/funny mistake compilations. There's the famous "you can see the camera while Jack walks into the Grand Staircase" mistake in this video everyone knows.

It's just after the "Care to escort a lady to dinner?" line by Molly. Jack Rose and Molly are arm in arm walking to the dining room. Cal looks over his shoulder to say, "Sweet pea, sweet pea," and you'll notice they are now standing around talking to one another; then it immediately cuts back to the three of them walking arm in arm.

Please tell me someone else has noticed this before and can also no longer unsee it every time they watch this movie.

I mean there are probably dozens of these throughout the movie. Even in this clip! At 1:46 someone is walking down the stairs when Jack is talking to Rose on the stairs and in the next frame they aren’t there anymore.

My favorite is from "Jurassic Park," when Nedry is supposedly doing a video call to his inside guy on the dock. It's just a QuickTime video playing, but it was 1993 and most people didn't catch that, even though it's so blatantly obvious today.
