Is it still reproducible ?

As I tested, when you are not following the tile, the video is in the stripe and presenter overlay and the screensharing in presentation. When you follow, the tile in stripe is just standard placeholder and the rest remains the same.

I'd say, it's an accepted behavior: user's screen (main) and video (stripe and overlay) are visible. Clicking on the video in stripe, it's expected to trigger "following" mode as all other videos and not switching between video and screen positions.

IMO, screen should always remain on main position when it's on. If it is on, it usually means that the focus is on the presentation.
