Research direction

Start by locating the bottom-navigation entry point and any tablet or landscape navigation handling in the WordPress for Android codebase; the issue names no files or tests. Verify the Chromebook and landscape-tablet cases, then confirm that bottom navigation is replaced by a left navbar only in those contexts and remains unchanged elsewhere.
