This is not a bug. You will routinely see constructs like this when you
jump to a deeply nested headline in real Org files. Only level 1
headlines are always kept visible by convention (and some people even
argue that this convention should be dropped e.g. in sparse trees).

To deal with such situations, see org-reveal (possibly with prefix
arguments).
