I can confirm this as well. I have to wonder if it's related to: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...-assimilation-and-more.1562649/#post-28705541

This makes it extremely frustrating compared to before; I have to constnatly check up and periodically re-apply my species template because every time I assimilate a new pop, it's just a blank, traitless synth.
