Extruder moved towards bed after print, destroying it

I had a very strange issue when printing a steam deck insert: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5494294/files

After slicing it with PrusaSlicer 2.5.0, it printed it correctly, but then the extruder went right through the print, destroying it as you can see there.

Not sure if the issue is with the Prusa Mini firmware or is an issue with the slicer, but it's the first time anything like that happened to me.
The main two questions is how can this be avoided? and how can I clean the extruder now as it's a big mess?

actually, reading online about this issue it looks like it's fixed by upgrading the firmware if you use a newer PrusaSlice version. Can that be added as a warning?
I'm going to search online for how to clean the extruder now, but any help would be welcomed
