What

When other settings are clicked first followed by another setting or the Help Center, those settings are closed automatically. But clicking the Help Center first keeps it open even other settings are clicked after that.

Why

With the Help Center being open all the time, it covers the options of other settings. Although X can be clicked to close the Help Center or - to minimize, it's not consistent with other settings behavior which are auto closed after another setting is clicked. (I'm not sure if we've made this intentional for the Help Center to remain open unless closed or minimized).

How

Automatically close the Help Center when other settings are selected.

In the Editor, the Help Center is clicked first followed by other settings. The Help Center covers the Settings:

In the editor, if the Help Center is open and the 3 dots are clicked, those options are on top of the Help Center:

In /home, the Help Center is clicked first followed by the notification settings. The Help Center covers the notifications:

Also in /home, click the Help Center first, then the notifications settings. Close or minimize the Help Center will also close the notifications settings.
