i find this happening only sometimes with no clear patterns to distinguish when it happens and when it doesn't

Seems like there is indeed a specific pattern behind this. When "forcefully" closing the start menu with ESC or its own button, width accordingly restores.

On the other hand, width change only persists when deleting the content of the search box manually, like the video demonstrates. That's the only case where I could trigger this bug manually.

I can confirm that; thanks.
