Highchart not rendering in shiny using 'Highcharter' package

I'm having problems getting highcharter to work with my shiny app. What's really weird is that some of the highcharts work and some don't. It's probably some dumb mistake I'm not catching. Anyways, here's some code:

library(shiny)
library(highcharter)
library(ggplot2)

ui <- fluidPage(
  column(width = 12,  
               highchartOutput("hc_more.FA",height="500px")
  )
)
server = function(input, output) {

  output$hc_more.FA <- renderHighchart({
      hchart(diamonds$carat)

  })

}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)

Here's what my app looks like? enter image description here

Here's my session info:

The reason is that you cannot have a dot in the chart name. Remove the dot and it works.
