Research direction

Start with the linked JSFiddle and reproduce the issue in mapbox-gl-js 3.7.0 using fadeDuration 0, then switch to Standard Satellite with setStyle. Compare the behavior with fadeDuration 100 and confirm that the dark overlay disappears without requiring a canvas click; done means switching styles leaves no overlay.
