Refine how the 'Always open list view' preference should work

[afercia]

Description

As a user, when I enable the 'Always open list view' preference, I would expect it to always stay open.

Instead, it closes when opening the main Block Inserter.

To me, this is unexpected. This unexoected closing already happens in WordPress 6.5 but it is now even more evident after #61004 which changes the Block Inserter beheavior to stay open when clicking outside of it.

Why the editor provides an 'Always open list view' preference when, instead, the List View actually closes automatically with no explicit user action to close it?

Also, I heard there are plans to reuse the same 'sidebar' panel for both the list view and the inserter. I do realize reusing code makes sense but how that is compatible with the 'Always open list view' preference?

Animated GIT to better illustrate:

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

• Go to the post editor > Options > Preferences, and enable the 'Always open list view' preference.
• Refresh the page.
• Observe the List View panel is open and stays open when you use the editor.
• Click 'Toggle block inserter' in the top bar, to open the main Inserter.
• Observe the main inserter opens.
• Observe the List View closes automatically. Observe it's not even rendered in the DOM.
• Close the main inserger by either clicking the toggle button in the top bar or the Close button within the inserter.
• Observe the List View panel does not re-opens. It stays closed.
