Bug - featured image - featured image is getting hidden randomly

[SophieAmnesty]

Describe the bug
I have noticed this a few times recently but I have no idea what's triggering it.

Sometimes the featured image on a post will get hidden and nobody seems to have meant that to happen.

I will go into the post and find the hide featured image setting toggled on, without me or the post editor having selected that setting.

It could just be user error, but it's sort of a difficult setting to change by accident.

It happened on these posts: https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/11/ethiopia-end-the-month-long-arbitrary-detention-of-thousands-in-amhara-region/ https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/10/damning-evidence-of-war-crimes-as-israeli-attacks-wipe-out-entire-families-in-gaza/

To Reproduce
I haven't figured out how to reproduce this yet. Hopefully I'll be able to come back and add detail to this at some point.

Expected behaviour
Featured image shouldn't be hidden unless the hide featured image setting has been selected by a user.

Actual behaviour
Sometimes the featured image seems to be getting hidden randomly.
