I don't think bugs should be submitted as ideas. I'm going to open up a support ticket. Perhaps you can do the same.

Thanks for entering a support ticket, I will do the same! Though uservoice forums are called "ideas", their purpose seems to have expanded to reporting bugs. Take a look at the bug reports page at https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/908686-bug-reports to see the verbiage used. For bugs like this that affect all tenants, it is helpful for MS to use social sites like uservoice to gauge the impact and set priorities on their bugs.
- Phili30Mar 23, 2021Copper ContributorAny news / updates regarding that issue? I have colleagues coming up with problems of having hidden channels despite being ticked as "show for members". Thanks!

Support wasn't any help, they pointed me to a similar idea on Uservoice. However, I did find a workaround. Checking and unchecking the checkbox on the Channels page has no effect, however if you click the ellipse for the channel and choose Edit Channel, that checkbox does WORK if you unselect it, save, and then reselect it.
