It doesn't do that here. It's specific to your machine.

Too much speculation. It's good that you can show that it does that for
your machine, but more interesting would be to find out why/when it does
that.

It is not user-specific configuration. This occurs for newly-created users too. I have not done anything to nautilus, I don't even know where its configuration settings are.
