I have had a read of what Lando provides, and it's an excellent development tool, and it would solve the problem. But, I would prefer to find out why the problem is there in the first...
How often is the settings.php loaded.
Thanks for the info. I will give it a try...

I use Lando (a wrapper for docker) and find settings changes happen straight away

You might need to add a Relationship in the View to Flags. Or there might be a setting on the content type. I can't recall for certain but I think it's possible.
No Flag fields in Views
Try using caching in the View settings, set to 24 hours. This should work for anonymous site visitors.

A topic for the dev meeting: jQuery UI 1.14.0 has a stable release.
There's already a pending 1.13.3 update, but we might want to consider 1.14 for the next Backdrop minor (1.29), the change would be too big for a patch release.
For example, we need to set a compatibility flag to true, which now defaults to false. Files have been removed, and other things.
Update to latest 1.13: https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6550
Update to 1.14: https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6677
This core bug (deprecated "dialogClass" usage) now gets more important: https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6184
But we get things working with 1.14, it seems. Even without fixing all dialogClass issues. So it's a matter of decision, which jQuery UI will go in next, I guess.
Proposed topic for User Group meeting if it is needed - configuring CK5 editor with allowed tags/attributes, comparing configuration of the CK Editor toolbar and allowed tags, comparing D7/D10/Backdrop configuration
Just to confirm I understand, does this mean that CK5 also has HTML filtering and proposing the ability to compare the Backdrop PHP filtering rules to CK5's?
I am not sure how Backdrop PHP filtering works. In D7 we had more separation between modules that control Text formats and Filters and I was able to limit both tags (<p>) and attributes ( <p class="summary caption text-align-left text-align-center text-align-right text-align-justify"> ).
Here is link for related issue https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6100
