# pypdf (at least version 5.7.0) has a bug when setting the value for a selection list field.
# In _writer.py around line 966:

# if field.get(FA.FT, "/Tx") == "/Ch" and field_flags & FA.FfBits.Combo == 0:
# txt = "\n".join(annotation.get_inherited(FA.Opt, []))
#
# The problem is that for selection lists, `get_inherited` returns a list of two-element lists like
# [["value1", "Text 1"], ["value2", "Text 2"], ...]
# This causes `join` to throw a TypeError because it expects an iterable of strings.
# The horrible workaround is to patch `get_inherited` to return a list of the value strings.
# We call the original method and adjust the return value only if the argument to `get_inherited`
# is `FA.Opt` and if the return value is a list of two-element lists.
