SVGs are missing elements when opening with Illustrator (and PhotoShop too)
For the last several weeks I've discovered that opening SVGs with Illustrator (and PhotoShop in fact) results in a significant portion of the artwork being missing. I've opened over 100 SVGs from multiple sources and every single one is missing elements when opened in Illustrator. When opened in Inkscape or Google Chrome the SVGs are fine. See attachments for an example SVG file from the web.
My work is almost solely in SVG for compatibility with other devices (laser cutter, etc), and not being able to successfully open ANY SVG is incredibly disruptive. I can export from Inkscape as EPS then it will open in Illustrator, but it's not the right file type for my needs. I also shouldn't have to use a free, inferior program to work around bugs in the very expensive software I pay for.
I'm using the newest version of Illustrator (26.3.1)

It seems that all of example SVGs are missing from the report. UserVoice obviously has some troubles with attaching them.
Can you please collect them all and send over sharewithai@adobe.com? Please also provide the link to this report for the team to track it: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45252568
Thanks!
