Section View odd behavior after saving and closing block editor

I'm having odd behavior with section views:

Situation: I have a section view in the main drawing that is currently on.

If I open a block to edit, and then close the block editor ("BCLOSE and SAVE"), the section view in the main drawing then turns off by itself.

I toggle the section back on.

And then…every time I attempt to "INSERT" the block in question, the section display turns off again.

I can insert other blocks fine without affecting the section view. But if I open and then save other blocks, then whenever I try to INSERT those blocks, my section view turns off.

At this point only closing and reopening the drawing resets behavior to normal.

EDIT: a little more info:

I have tried inserting the block in 3 different ways, and all three result in the same action of causing the section view to toggle off: (IF the block was opened in the block editor and saved)

1: "INSERT" command via dialog box

2: LISP invoking command line method (command "-insert" blockname insertionpoint…)

3: LISP invoking a vla-insertblock method
