The coder can't reproduce the error because something is cached that makes a different page work but a browser without that page/form in cache will fail.  In the old days it was controlled via <HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">, but it is more complicated now, so someone better at modern html coding may be able to answer better on what may be failing causing the presentation of seemingly conflated pages.


It's not a caching issue in this case.

I can reproduce the error. I can even reproduce it with a crafted GET
URL with query fragments. I have also opened the page in a total of 7
browsers on two different machines, most of which had never previously
gotten that page, and I see the issue everywhere.

I am convinced that there is some problem with the 'bootstrap' stuff on
the page that causes the form on the members tab to be partially
replaced with stuff from the form on the profile tab, but I haven't been
able to figure out what the problem is.
