They did the exact opposite of what was being asked here

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/inconsistent-pinned-sites-in-vertical-tabs-images-are-attached/m-p/1826025

whether vertical tabs sidebar is pinned or unpinned, only the icon of the pinned tabs should be displayed, never their titles.

but in this Dev update and also in Canary right now (Version 89.0.764.0), the title of the pinned tabs in vertical tabs sidebar is always displayed.

so instead of never display pinned tab titles, now it's always display pinned tab titles.

I, too, came here to complain about pinned tabs on the vertical bar. At least give us a flag to fix it.

Flags are only for experiments, i think this is a temporary bug that will be fixed soon in canary and then Dev subsequently.
everyone that experiences this problem can send feedback through browser feedback system and emphasize that the opposite of what is available now should happen. because by fixing it they might just go back to the previous state, but i want them to go one step further and completely fix it (i.e. never show the title of a pinned tab in vertical tabs sidebar, no matter the vertical tab sidebar itself is pinned or unpinned).
just like in horizontal tab strip, where you never see tab title when you pin a tab.
that'd be a lot appreciated, the more feedbacks people send = the faster it will be fixed
