Text entry field for answer stays open (once) after submitting

~~When posting an answer to [this question](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/288633), I experienced a strange glitsh in the submission process.~~
The text entry view remained open after submission, and was still showing the draft. This misled me to click _Save Post in Q&A_ a second time and thereby post a [duplicate answer (now deleted)](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/288633/288643#answer-288643). After that second click, however, the entry field was correctly closed, so the problem didn't persists.
Originally I thought that maybe I had the same post _open for post-submission editing in two browser tabs_ at the same time, but testing it with this very question confirmed that this does _not_ lead to the kind of double-submission I experienced here.[]()
