Thanks, Paul. I have meanwhile submitted a ticket for this:

What version of LyX are you using? I get the vertical line using LyX 2.3.4.2 on
Linux Mint.
Thanks, Paul. I am using
LyX Version 2.3.4.2
on Fedora Linux 31.
Have you selected the matrix decoration as [x], Paul?
As soon as one does that, LyX uses bmatrix environment, with which it
is impossible to get an augmented matrix.
Sorry, missed that part. You're right, that does nuke the vertical line.
A workaround is to use the [] math toolbar button to create the brackets
and insert the matrix inside. It's not perfect -- there seems to be more
white space between brackets and matrix -- but it's in the ballpark.
No, Paul. There is a better approach: The one presented at the
web-address I mention on my initial message: In the horizontal
alignment, insert:
@{}c|c@{}
and select no matrix decoration. Then enter the brackets as you
suggested. You will see that the extra white space between brackets
and matrix will be gone.
I would suggest that LyX implements this approach: Augmented matrices
are shown very nicely and neatly.

You should submit a ticket for this. I did a little experimenting and
discovered that if you do exactly what you were doing in the screenshot
/except/ make any one column left or right justified rather than
centered, LyX nests an array inside a bmatrix. With all centering, LyX
just uses a bmatrix and drops the contents of the horizontal alignment
field. (I did not experiment with vertical alignments.) So unless there
is a reason not to do so, the answer might simply be to nest an array
inside a bmatrix in all cases.
The fact that LyX is deviating from its usual behavior in this one case
has me wondering whether the exception was created deliberately, to
accommodate some other use case.

No, Paul. There is a better approach: The one presented at the
web-address I mention on my initial message: In the horizontal
alignment, insert:
@{}c|c@{}
and select no matrix decoration. Then enter the brackets as you
suggested. You will see that the extra white space between brackets
and matrix will be gone.
I would suggest that LyX implements this approach: Augmented matrices
are shown very nicely and neatly.
