Network Error Occurred when using patch to update an unchanged choice column

I have a patch statement as follows (There's more data I'm patching, but removed it for testing and clarity):
Patch(
    Offices,
    Offices_Gal.Selected,
    {
        Day: Day_Combo.Selected
    }
)
This is straight forward and works if I change the the day and hit save (trigger the patch).
However, if I don't change the combo box value and hit save, it gives me a "Network error when using Patch function" error.

There are other fields I am patching, so the Day will not always change.
I don't want users to have to Flip/Flop the Day each time they want to change one of the other fields.
It's just weird!

I have also tried
Day: {Value: Day_Combo.Selected.Value}
Which also works in the same manner

    It was all about the DefaultSelectedItems of my Combo Box.
    If that isn't exactly what the Patch requires, when you submit unchanged data, then that gets rejected.
