When org-log-into-drawer is t and the log book drawer is open, using
org-add-note closes the log book drawer.
I think it would be better if org-add-note left the state (open or
closed) of the log book drawer alone.
In comparison org-clock-in and org-clock-out do leave the state of the
log book drawer alone, which is much more satisfactory.
This is with org-20160718 from GNU Elpa (which is Org Mode version
8.3.4) on GNU Emacs 25.0.95 (from the pre-release tarball).

I understand the discrepancy problem.
However, drawers are meant to remove stuff from view, i.e., their
contents are, more often than not, hidden. So, `org-clock-in' and
`org-clock-out' may be wrong in this case.
WDYT?

For me the reasoning is the other way around: "Since drawers are meant
to remove stuff from view, i.e., their contents are, more often than
not, hidden", I'd say if the drawer is open prior to org-add-note
there might be a reason why so and it would ne nice not to interfere
with the users choice.
I open my org files in show-everything view for performance reasons.
I have turned on note taking for many funtions like changing TODO
states an cklockin out, therefore the really big drawer collapses all
the time although I want it to stay open.
Just my 2, Gregor
