No backtrace yet, but I found another reproducer without vertico, all
used packages are from Emacs core.

Configured using:
 'configure
 CONFIG_SHELL=/gnu/store/v9p25q9l5nnaixkhpap5rnymmwbhf9rp-bash-minimal-5.1.16/bin/bash
 SHELL=/gnu/store/v9p25q9l5nnaixkhpap5rnymmwbhf9rp-bash-minimal-5.1.16/bin/bash
 --prefix=/gnu/store/1gij4r65kyw6lm2m9clqpraigivjgzq9-emacs-test-test
 --enable-fast-install --with-pgtk --without-libsystemd
 --enable-checking=yes,glyphs --enable-check-lisp-object-type
 --with-native-compilation=no --with-cairo --with-modules
 --disable-build-details 'CFLAGS=-O0 -g3''

1. Run emacs -Q
2. Paste the following code into the scratch buffer and run eval-buffer
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(load-library "transient")
(fido-vertical-mode 1)
(defclass test-transient-multi (transient-option) ()
  ((key         :initform "-")
   (argument    :initform "-")
   (multi-value :initform t)
   (reader      :initform completing-read-multiple))
  "")

(transient-define-argument test:--1 ()
  :description "test1"
  :class 'transient-option
  :shortarg "a"
  :argument "test1=")

(transient-define-argument test:--2 ()
  :description "test2"
  :class 'test-transient-multi
  :key "r"
  :argument "test2"
  :multi-value t
  :prompt "Test2: "
  :reader (lambda (prompt _initial-input _history)
            (completing-read-multiple
             prompt
             '("nonsdlslde" "slsdl" "2323" "ldslld" "30203" "llx" "ldslsd"))))

(transient-define-argument test:--3 ()
  :description "test3"
  :class 'test-transient-multi
  :key "l"
  :argument "test3"
  :multi-value t
  :prompt "Test3: "
  :reader (lambda (prompt _initial-input _history)
            (completing-read-multiple
             prompt
             '("nonsdlslde" "slsdl" "2323" "ldslld" "30203" "llx" "ldslsd"))))

(transient-define-argument test:--4 ()
  :description "test4"
  :class 'test-transient-multi
  :key "y"
  :argument "test4"
  :multi-value t
  :prompt "Test4: "
  :reader (lambda (prompt _initial-input _history)
            (completing-read-multiple
             prompt
             '("nonsdlslde" "slsdl" "2323" "ldslld" "30203" "llx" "ldslsd"))))

(defun test-hello ()
  ""
  (interactive)
  (message "hello"))

(transient-define-prefix test-dispatch ()
  ["Test parameters"
   (test:--1)
   (test:--2)
   (test:--3)
   (test:--4)
   ]
  [["Search"
    ("s" "test" test-hello)]])
(set-face-attribute 'default nil :family "monospace" :height 440)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

3. M-x test-dispatch
4. Try playing with the parameters test1, test2, test3, test4. At the
same time you can put Emacs into full screen mode and back into windowed
mode, where it will occupy half of the screen. Initially, calling the
parameters test1, test2, test3, test4 in the transient window will be
delayed and everything can be canceled with C-g, after a few repetitions
Emacs hangs completely.
