[MAINT] Fix for #3346

RELEASE-NOTES.md

@@ -11,6 +11,7 @@
 - Added the `broadcast_distribution_samples` function that helps broadcasting arrays of drawn samples, taking into account the requested `size` and the inferred distribution shape. This sometimes is needed by distributions that call several `rvs` separately within their `random` method, such as the `ZeroInflatedPoisson` (Fix issue #3310).
 - The `Wald`, `Kumaraswamy`, `LogNormal`, `Pareto`, `Cauchy`, `HalfCauchy`, `Weibull` and `ExGaussian` distributions `random` method used a hidden `_random` function that was written with scalars in mind. This could potentially lead to artificial correlations between random draws. Added shape guards and broadcasting of the distribution samples to prevent this (Similar to issue #3310).
 - Added a fix to allow the imputation of single missing values of observed data, which previously would fail (Fix issue #3122).
+- Fix for #3346. The `draw_values` function was too permissive with what could be grabbed from inside `point`, which lead to an error when sampling posterior predictives of variables that depended on shared variables that had changed their shape after `pm.sample()` had been called.
