[1.3.3389] Auto-slaughter with "total" setting doesn't work correctly

When using the auto-slaughter setting and setting the maximum on the "total" column, unexpected things happen.
Let's use the following example: You have 4 males, 10 non-pregnant females and 6 pregnant females. The total count will be 20.

1. It seems pregnant animals are included in the total count display, but actually lower the checked number by their amount, even though the number is shown in red (as if the maximum is exceeded and action should be taken). If you set it to a maximum of 14, auto-slaughter will not happen in this case (presumably because the 6 pregnant animals are secretly deducted). If you set it to 13, auto-slaughter will start.

2. Auto-slaughter excludes pregnant females from the "female" column display by default, but adds their number in that column when you enable the setting to slaughter them (so the display behaves differently than the "total" column). If auto-slaughter is enabled and you set the "total" maximum of 13, they do not follow the noted rule of "first non-pregnant from oldest to youngest, then pregnant oldest to youngest". They can just start slaughtering your pregnant animals, even if there are non pregnant animals left.

"Total" maximum set lower than current count. Nothing happening:

"Total" with pregnant allowed. Female column count changes. Nothing happening:

"Total" with pregnant allowed and 1 lower than deducted pregnant females. Slaughtering starting:
