Calendar tab keeps moving

Using Thunderbird 68.6.0 (32-bit) with Lightning 68.6.0 on Windows 10 Pro with all updates. I open the calendar tab and keep it open at all times. Everything is fine. Then I shut down Thunderbird. When I re-open Thunderbird, the calendar tab will probably (not all the time) have moved to after one or more open email tabs. I can move it back by dragging it but I'd prefer if it didn't move in the first place. Is there some way I can "pin" the tab to where I want it?

If TB doesn't open with the same tabs and order that was shown at last exit, try this: Help/Troubleshooting, click Open Folder, close TB, delete or rename session.json. Do the tabs now open the same way they were when TB was closed?

After renaming session.json and restarting Thunderbird, it starts with *only* the mail tab open. The calendar tab is not open and none of the individual email tabs are either

After the first restart, TB will open with just the mail tab, but afterwards it should open with the tabs that were open at last closing.
