Comment (by costdev):

 @ironprogrammer Thanks for testing!

 Indeed, when the `_wc_activation_redirect` is set to `1` (or any other
 truthy value), the next page load will load the onboarding screen. Note
 that this is also true of a WP-CLI-based activation.

 This is certainly an unfortunate issue if a user opens the modal after
 activating the plugin, though I expect this to be a relatively rare
 occasion. I believe any change needed to stop this happening would need to
 occur in WooCommerce itself.

 Given the work in #61040, I think it's likely that a solution to this
 issue will come about by an extender implementing the resulting framework.
 As I understand it, it's our intention is to deliver on the framework for
 WordPress 6.6, so this rare occurrence would then only be possible for
 6.5.x releases.
