Ok. I can see what is happening.
Unlike agenda log-mode, where L toggles the mode on/off, the inactive
timestamps are not toggled; they can only be enabled and re-enable
manually when the agenda view is refreshed.

This is consistent with the documentation:

‘v [’ or short ‘[’ (‘org-agenda-manipulate-query-add’)
     Include inactive timestamps into the current view.  Only for
     weekly/daily agenda.

Note how there no word "toggle" in the manual. It explicitly refers to
the "current view".

I am not sure why it is done this way and I cannot see any explanations
in the git logs.

I do not see why it should not be possible to make inactive timestamp
display into a toggle.
Patches welcome. It is an easy patch.
