The same YouTube version has no bug

Bug patch: Setting>Shorts The 3 options shown in the image must be enabled for the above patch to generate the bug 3 options must be active at the same time . Otherwise there will be no bug

You have turned off all Shorts everywhere:

hide_shorts_home": true,
"hide_shorts_search": true,
"hide_shorts_subscriptions": true,

Because of issues with how the Shorts shelf is loaded, there exists use cases where the app thinks a specific tab is selected when in reality it is not.

To prevent showing Shorts in these situations, if Shorts are disabled in all places then Shorts are always hidden everywhere (and that includes the history tab).

if you want to see Shorts in your history, then turn off one or more of the 'hide Shorts' settings listed above.
