Threaded view does not display most recent messages when clicking the thread when using Card View

more options

With "Unread Messages" filter and "Order By -> Group By Thread" both enabled, the threaded message view does not display the most recent message in Inbox. When a new reply arrives to the already displayed thread, it is hidden underneath the packed mail thread in message list and the user is unaware of having a more recent reply already available there. After clicking another mail thread and then back again, the most recent reply is still not shown in the message preview sub-window.

I am using the new default "card" view with Thunderbird 115.

To add to that, since I am also viewing the message list in descending order, the view is also affected by this bug reported 15 years ago: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479969. Messages within the thread are sorted in ascending order, regardless of view settings of the message list.
