Gurdev's colleague here. We figured out why. It was because the list has a calculated field. When there is a calculated field, SharePoint Online automatically switches to the classic experience for the Display Form and as a result, clicking on a list item takes you to the classic Display Form instead of opening the form on the right-hand panel using the new modern experience.

You're right Vuong Le Phong. Calculated columns cause the display form to go classic. We have been facing the same problem.
Pinging danholme to see if someone on the modern engineering team could fix these quirks.

I have a work around for it until it will be fixed by Microsoft. Just make the calculated fields hidden (I used PnP powershell to hide the fields). The fields still display in list views but not in the display form. An interesting thing to note is that everything is fine with the edit form. This bug should be easily fixed by Microsoft.
