Description
I think it's typical behavior for apps that open an empty untitled document upon startup to close that document when the user opens an existing document instead.

Research direction
Start by tracing how MacDown creates an empty untitled document at startup and how it handles opening an existing document. Confirm the desired behavior and any edge cases from the issue discussion; done means the empty untitled document closes when an existing document is opened, without closing documents containing content.
