Open tab next to current

Hi, I'm having difficulty getting tabs to open as I prefer.

I have browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent set to true.

When I right click on a link and select Open Link in New Tab, it does open the new tab next to the current one. However, if I then repeat to open another new tab, this appears to the right of the first one, rather than right next to the current tab.

So, if I open a series of tabs, they appear 1 2 3 4 5 next to current. I would like them to appear 5 4 3 2 1.

Is there another setting that is interfering? I wondered if the tab groups settings are making a difference?

Many thanks!
