Comment:

 I can replicate this. While editing the Blog page, and selecting "Preview
 in new tab", the link URL points to `https://{my
 domain}/blog/?preview_id=110&preview_nonce=...&preview=true` - note the
 presence of `/blog/` in there.

 The tab that opens though ends up as `https://{my
 domain}/?preview_id=110&preview_nonce=...` - a visible redirect has
 happened and the `/blog/` is gone from the URL.

 If I manually add the `/blog/` part back, then I do get the contents of
 the blog page, albeit with no amendments from the editing since the Blog
 page is handled via the "Blog Home" Template on the Twenty Twenty-Three
 theme.

 Even if it may not make sense to preview a static blog page which is being
 handled by a block theme template, the UI is a little confusing to new
 (and experienced) users.
