Suppression Issue with Conditional Styling

I'm encountering an issue where rows in my crosstab with crosstab spaces for headers are being suppressed after I apply conditional styling to one of my columns (I'm optionally showing/hiding a column by setting it's box type to "none" based on a prompt selection). The suppression properly ignores the spaces when the styling hasn't been applied. Has anyone encountered this and know of a work-around?

I'm not sure if there's a more elegant solution, but I ended up just creating a string data item with a single space in its definition to use for all of these header rows. so the process just considers their values non-null/empty despite looking blank for the end user. That's working well enough for me. Figured I'd share in case someone else reads this and needs a solution.
