Comment (by grapestain):

 I have an issue on a site now with `wp_editor()` inside a MetaBox, which
 seems to be related, but it is not caused by moving the MetaBoxes around.
 It looks more like a race condition or so, because approx. 50% of the
 times the edit post page is loaded the editors do not work. I assume there
 may be some other things on the same page, which cause some critical DOM
 changes, and when those changes finish before TinyMCE is initialised, the
 editors work, but other times they not. Reloading the page few times
 causes them to work, as the issue is intermittent, but it is less than
 ideal. But this is only an assumption.

 Unfortunately I see no errors in the console or any other clear indication
 of the problem.

 On one hand I'm writing this so we can see if others have similar issues
 too?

 On the other hand I'm wondering if someone could help with a piece of JS
 that would reinitialise the editors, so I could just add them to the page
 with a bit of a sleepdelay after load as a dirty workaround.

 FF v84.0.2
 WP v5.6
