Looks Good

Summary

Adds a length check to prevent forceSelection from clearing input when the value length is below minQueryLength/minLength threshold

Issue Alignment

Excellent alignment. The fix directly addresses the reported bug where forceSelection was incorrectly clearing input values shorter than minQueryLength. The solution adds a guard clause to check if input length meets the minimum requirement before proceeding with force selection validation.
