Maintaining Dataverse display names with referenced queries?

In the July 2022 Desktop update, Power BI Desktop added the feature to automatically pull Dataverse display names. This has been a huge time-saver for me in developing reports. However, I'm running into an issue where I have to reference a query (which correctly pulls display names) in order to resolve the "Please rebuild this data combination" error. When I reference a query, the resulting query loses the Dataverse display names. Is it possible to maintain display names when referencing another query as needed to resolve the noted error?

 

For reference, here is entirety of the the second query that loses display names and only shows schema names:

let
    Source = ProjectItemActivityBase
in
