Must a person who changed their Qibla direction based on Ijtihad and then changed it again repeat the previously performed prayer sections?

Primary text

If the direction of prayer changes based on new Ijtihad, the worshipper turns toward the new direction and builds upon the prayer already performed. This is not considered overturning Ijtihad; rather, the changed direction is only implemented for the future, similar to how a subsequent prayer is treated. An overturning of Ijtihad would only occur if the worshipper were required to repeat the past parts of the prayer as if they had never occurred.
