Trying to follow the official guide https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/getting-started/installation/react/react-multiroot.html with two way binding disabled to have a controlled component.

However, on trying to access the data via getData() function on the editor instance, I get datacontroller-get-non-existent-root error.
