What happened?

In Notepad (both version of Windows) all the styles show up in the Font style box when choosing a font after the font name (Cascadia Code) is selected in the Font box. In Word (both versions of Windows) the names and styles are shown all in the Font box

but Cascadia Code Bold does not show up. Why is that?

This is a behavior of Word. Like with pretty much all style-linked fonts (such as Calibri, etc.), the Bold weight is not visible and is accessible via the Bold button.
