iOS layer masking doesn't work on UIStackView

Question

I tried applying a layer mask in iOS (iOS12) on the layer of a UIStackView. The mask doesn't work and I still see the UIStackView whole.

I am pretty sure the base layer of a UIStackView is a CATransformLayer so properties such as mask to bounds border color and others won’t work. — agibson007, Dec 05 '18 at 12:44

Apparently, you can't mask UIStackViews! When I wrapped the stack view in a regular UIView, and applied the mask on it - the masking started to work.
