Needless to say, it occurs on my machine as well (Arch + 120.0.1).
Maybe a quick (while dirty) workaround would be to automatically apply a snapshot? Applying a snapshot restores the layout for me.
@CoelacanthusHex I see you have
"hideEmptyPanels": true,
I noticed something that when you have multiple panels and the setting "Hide Empty Tabs Panel" set as On Then if I restart firefox the panels that had tabs are shown in the default panel and not their original panels. Can't recall if they are flattened.
This is a bug. However as workaround if I have "Hide Empty Tabs Panel" set as Off and I restart Firefox then tabs and panels are all restored correctly to their original positions.

Sadly, it doesn't work for me. And I have only one panel.
Can confirm all my tabs just flattened, went to my default channel and my pinned tabs went to my default panel after restoring a window. (despite hideEmptyPanels being false)
Tried various things to try simulate the problem on a new window by doing things I did and keeping my exact same settings but couldn't the problem. Problem most likely doesn't seem to be settings related then)
Reprodeceable on Archlinux + Firefox 125.0.1.
Note that you have to disable "General - Startup - Open previous windows and tabs" first, so that "restore the previous session" will appear next time start firefox.
In my case (MacOS 14.4.1 + FF 125.0.2, no other extensions) tabs and panels get flattened if I use "Restore the previous session". However, if I turn on "Open previous windows and tabs" in the FF settings, the panels and the tabs are restored correctly.
