Install Twitter website to homescreen shows bad login state

On iPhone XS, iOS14. I use Safari to load twitter.com.
I log into my account, and browse around.
I choose to save Twitter to my homescreen.
I then load Twitter from my homescreen.

Expected:
EITHER:
- still logged into Twitter
- logged out of Twitter

Actual:
- Page shows my account, but no content will load.

I suspect that the problem is that the homescreened site is sharing a serviceworker with safari but not sharing cookies.
I suspect the page showing my account is from the serviceworker cache, but the site does not have the right cookies to be able to make further requests.
Swipe-up the homescreened site and re-opening will show a logged-out state.

This bug is not always reproducible, I think because the serviceworker needs to be installed and to cache a page.
