Description
Using `disablePageAnimations` is buggy currently on iOS 26. It recreates the TabBar middle-animation which causes a visual glitch effect when selecting a tab.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the visual glitch on iOS 26 or later with disablePageAnimations enabled, using the attached recording as the reference. Trace the tab-selection and middle-animation entry points to find where the animation is recreated. Done means selecting tabs no longer produces the visual glitch while disablePageAnimations still suppresses page animations.
