Not sure which build you're using but I suspect it is
https://emacsformacosx.com/ judging by your environment at first glance. I
used to experience similar freezes when I used it.

I switched to https://github.com/jimeh/emacs-builds/releases/tag/Emacs-29.4
which performs much better, supports native compilation, and I do not
experience freezes. Give it a try if you're not already on this build. Jim
is also very responsive.

Thanks, but without a recipe to reproduce this, or at least a
description of what happened, I don't see how we can investigate this.
Also, please describe in more detail what does "freeze" mean in this
case.

The call-stack you posted indicates this is a nested debugger call,
because the original error, signaled by Lisp, somehow caused the
debugger to hit another error.  But a lot of important details are
missing.

FWIW, I think this is bug#72496.
