Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported sequence in MuseScore Studio: delete the title frame in the main score, create a part, and return to the main score. Trace the part-creation flow and score/frame state to determine why the deleted frame returns; done means the frame remains deleted after creating and switching between parts.
