Lifeweaver Life Grip Bug Workaround?

I got the platinum trophy last year and lately I’ve been playing again, trying to mop up the last few trophies I don’t have for 100%. I’ve noticed that Lifeweaver’s Life Grip Deaths Prevented stat refuses to track even one, which makes his Life Weaving trophy currently unobtainable as far as I can tell. I had one game where I got six whole save credits with it without dying, but the stat didn’t increment at all. Does anyone know any workaround for it? Or otherwise, does anyone know if it will be fixed with his buff soon?
