Storybook gets the Nuxt server into an infinite crash loop

[linear]

When running pnpm run dev I get a constantly flowing stream of errors, seemingly from storybook making the Nuxt server crash. It makes the terminal useless because any warnings or errors that come up are immediately swept away by a new wall of text.

If I comment out the line '@nuxtjs/storybook', in the modules list in nuxt.config.ts, the problem goes away.

This is what I see in the terminal:

bq. lfx-insights@ dev /linuxfoundation/insights/frontend
bq. nuxt dev
