// Only applied to a session with no serialized layout in the cache. zellij restores
// ~/.cache/zellij/*/session_info/<name>/session-layout.kdl ahead of this setting, so
// `zellij attach --create <name>` on a name that existed before this line was added comes
// back with the old tab-bar/status-bar pair and never picks up compact. Verified by planting
// a tab-bar session-layout.kdl under a fresh name: it resurrected tab-bar, config ignored.
// To convert such a session, discard its saved state with `zellij delete-session --force
// <name>` and recreate it -- that drops its remembered panes and cwds.
