Thank you for the bug report! Please note that Plasma 5.26.5 will not be supported for much longer by KDE; supported versions are 5.27, and 5.27 or newer. Please upgrade to the latest version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.

Any chance it's variety manually changing the layout to folder view for *some reason*?
No idea, as it doesn't seem to happen consistently. I have just asked the variety developers.
