Sometimes a System Error exception is thrown on Communications.emptyMailbox()

So here is my code snippet:

using Toybox.Communications;
using Toybox.WatchUi;
using Toybox.Attention;

function phoneAppMessageHandler(message) {
    var data = message.data;
    Communications.emptyMailbox();

    if (data != null) {
        // Play connection tone
        if (Attention has :playTone) {
            Attention.playTone(ToneProfiles.appConnectionTone);
        }

        // Assign the server port
        WheelData.webServerPort = data;

        // And set connection state
        WheelData.setIsAppConnected(true);
    }

    WatchUi.requestUpdate();
}

This snippet is called when a new message is received from the phone(basically a callback passed to Communications.registerForPhoneAppMessages())
And for some reason it can die on Communications.emptyMailbox() with System Error exception. I have no idea what is the cause. Btw, if you are interested in source, here it is: https://github.com/Wheellog/Companion.Garmin/blob/5ee2ec80077782a5efc11841ca22a9315a3d32a1

And the thing is, that it is pretty frequent! In ERA viewer I see that it is a really popular error, with 239(!!!) occurrences!
