Functions don't seem to re-run on revalidatePath or router.refresh

I'm building a text editor with a sidebar. It saves content with a debounced function that triggers a server action, which in turn has a revalidatePath in it. The sidebar does refresh with newer content, but functions that rely on that data don't seem to be refreshing properly.

Specifically, the function that calculates the n secs ago doesn't seem to run, and returns null for some reason. I have checked that the value refreshes correctly by checking if the value (updatedAt) itself refreshes, and that works fine. The problem only occurs with a function wrapping updatedAt.

I'm not sure if I've implemented something wrong, or this is a bug.
