Research direction
Start at apps/meteor/client/views/room/MessageList/MessageList.tsx around line 164 and inspect how the message list currently scrolls to the latest message. Compare that behavior with the surrounding message-list flow to determine whether a clearer or more reliable approach is warranted; done means documenting the approach and implementing it only if the investigation identifies a concrete improvement.
