Please feel free to let me know what you find from testing on other browsers and incognito.

Deleted It happens in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Chrome Incognito. Also happens for every site.

Many thanks for your response, considering this happens on all sites and browser it is safe to say this is by design. I am sure if you have another user in the same tenant test, they'll have the same exact behavior.

Thanks anyway.
