Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the two `start /min wt.exe -w exam` commands on Windows Terminal 1.22.2702.0 and Windows build 10.0.19045.4894. Trace the existing-window handling for `wt.exe -w exam sp`; done means the existing window remains minimized while the second command adds the pane.
