By cleaning up my bookmarks I found this:

https://superuser.com/questions/961717/linux-mint-deleted-bottom-panel-how-to-un-delete#:~:text=You%20can't%20%22undelete%22,get%20a%20new%20blank%20panel.

So this means the problem is not only exists for a very long time,
it also is present in more - probably all- DE's.
Yet the cut and paste clowns keep releasing new releases but
refusing to fix anything, ever.

I know I am alone here but I find this strategy insane.
