Contagion not spreading all Chaos damage over time Debuffs

Contagion says: "If the enemy dies while affected by Contagion, it and all other Chaos damage over time Debuffs spread to nearby enemies and refresh their durations."

The Unique ring "Blackflame Amethyst Ring" says: "Enemies Ignited by you take Chaos Damage instead of Fire Damage from Ignite"

The Ailment keyword in PoE2 says: "Ailments are a family of common Debuffs" and specifically lists Ignite

With "Blackflame Amethyst Ring" equipped, Ignite is a Chaos damage over time Debuff which should be spreadable by Contagion based on the descriptions and keywords

Similar bug with the skill "Dark Effigy": "Fires a Projectile at every nearby enemy that is afflicted by a Chaos damage over time Debuff", Chaos damage over time Ignite is not triggering projectiles.

Possibly the ring itself is bugged, not converting Ignite Fire DoT to Chaos DoT as expected which could cause the skill effects relying on Chaos DoTs to not apply
Unable to support Ignite skills like "Solar Orb" with "Hinder", even with Unique ring equipped to convert Fire DoT to Chaos DoT. While it can be supported by things like "Lasting Shock" or "Frost Nexus" that also rely on other synergies to get shock or freeze capability.

Seems like the Unique Ring was forgotten when looking into synergies to take into account for early access.
