Has anyone else seen this behavior? Is there a setting in the schemamapper that tells it to only map attributes that exist on the source?

Weird SchemaMapper behavior
So I am using the schemamapper to batch map attributes from one format to another using a CSV. In the CreateAttributeMap screen I have it set remove the source attribute. When I run my features through, it appears that all the attributes in the CSV are being assigned to every feature regardless if they exist on the source and attaches them to the output feature as an empty attribute (which is why in my last post I asked about removing all empty attributes).

If you add a visualiser after the SchemaMapper, can you then look at the attribute with the name: _schemamapped_rows (or something similar) and see if these are the correct lines from the CSV you want to have mapped on this feature?
If you submit the CSV and some example data and how you set up the workspace it will be easier to help
