 ### Tweaks
-* Re-enabled stack batching for 1.21
-* Query creative group contents on thread. This may cause slight notable performance dips but will significantly improve compatibility
-* Redundant JEI initialization will not be performed on mods with dedicated EMI integration, increasing performance in those situations
+* Tweaked JEI/EMI compatibility disabling to not load plugins earlier than previously expected
 
 ### Fixes
-* Various fixes to modern JEI compatibility
-* Fix recipe filling behavior having incorrect behavior with edge case slot interactions
-* Fixed invisible slots having rendered overlays when they should not #654
-* Fixed handling for extra mouse button binds #645
+* Fixed regression in item group querying causing errors to cascade outside of single groups
