The prop `Roact.Children` was defined but was overridden by the third parameter to createElement!
This can happen when a component passes props through to a child element but also uses the `children` argument:

	Roact.createElement("Frame", passedProps, {
		child = ...
	})

Instead, consider using a utility function to merge tables of children together:

	local children = mergeTables(passedProps[Roact.Children], {
		child = ...
	})

	local fullProps = mergeTables(passedProps, {
		[Roact.Children] = children
	})

	Roact.createElement("Frame", fullProps)]]

--[[
	Creates a new element representing the given component.

	Elements are lightweight representations of what a component instance should
	look like.

	Children is a shorthand for specifying `Roact.Children` as a key inside
	props. If specified, the passed `props` table is mutated!
