I want to deploy a very basic S3 Table setup using CloudFormation:

AWSTemplateFormatVersion: 2010-09-09
Description: S3 Tables Stack
Resources: 
  TableBucket:
    Type: AWS::S3Tables::TableBucket
    Properties:
      TableBucketName: my-data-bucket

  BronzeNamespace:
    Type: AWS::S3Tables::Namespace
    Properties:
      Namespace: bronze
      TableBucketARN: !GetAtt TableBucket.TableBucketARN

  RawData:
    Type: AWS::S3Tables::Table
    DependsOn: BronzeNamespace
    Properties:
      IcebergMetadata: 
        IcebergSchema: 
          SchemaFieldList:
            - Name: timestamp
              Required: true
              Type: timestamptz
            - Name: parameter_name
              Required: true
              Type: string
            - Name: parameter_value
              Required: false
              Type: double
      Namespace: !Ref BronzeNamespace
      OpenTableFormat: ICEBERG
      TableBucketARN: !GetAtt TableBucket.TableBucketARN
      TableName: my-raw-data

When I try to deploy the above through CloudFormation I always get the following error:

Resource handler returned message: "The specified namespace does not exist. (Service: S3Tables, Status Code: 404, Request ID: 12595fe4-2751-487c-b7f5-f0648914bdd5) (SDK Attempt Count: 1)" (RequestToken: c212bb1e-56f6-8ecc-e346-7d03cf5c6e90, HandlerErrorCode: NotFound)

This is AFTER CloudFormation already reports in the console that BronzeNamespace has been successfully created (just to be sure I added an explicit DependsOn but this is not actually required). I already tried replacing the !Ref BronzeNamespace (which should return the namespace name) with the actual namespace name (bronze) but that changes nothing.

I cannot imagine this is a bug (as this is the most basic thing you would want to do when setting up S3 Tables through CloudFormation) but I also fail to see what I'm doing wrong here?
