api.tree.toggle doesn't work when setup is called right before it in a mapping

[Ultra-Code]

Description

I am trying to manually lazy load nvim-tree on a mapping <leader>n, so I setup config like normally would but moved setup to be called in the mapping function. But I realized that when setup is called, followed by api.tree.toggle in the map, it always opens the tree window and never closes it. NOTE: but if I call the setup function outside of the mapping function .ie vim.keymap.set everything works normal . But because I am trying to lazy load nvim-tree, calling setup outside of the map isn't an option. In addition, the api.tree.open and api.tree.close work perfectly when mapped (.ie setup function then api.tree.*) only toggle isn't working for me.

I think this issue is manifest in view.is_visible() in the toggle fn

Minimal config

vim.cmd [[set runtimepath=$VIMRUNTIME]]
vim.cmd [[set packpath=/tmp/nvt-min/site]]
local package_root = "/tmp/nvt-min/site/pack"
local install_path = package_root .. "/packer/start/packer.nvim"
local function load_plugins()
  require("packer").startup {
    {
      "wbthomason/packer.nvim",
      "nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua",
      "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons",
      -- ADD PLUGINS THAT ARE _NECESSARY_ FOR REPRODUCING THE ISSUE
    },
    config = {
      package_root = package_root,
      compile_path = install_path .. "/plugin/packer_compiled.lua",
      display = { non_interactive = true },
    },
  }
end
if vim.fn.isdirectory(install_path) == 0 then
  print "Installing nvim-tree and dependencies."
  vim.fn.system { "git", "clone", "--depth=1", "https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim", install_path }
end
load_plugins()
require("packer").sync()
vim.cmd [[autocmd User PackerComplete ++once echo "Ready!" | lua setup()]]
vim.opt.termguicolors = true
vim.opt.cursorline = true

_G.setup = function()
 vim.keymap.set("n", ",n", function()
    require("nvim-tree").setup()
    return require("nvim-tree.api").tree.toggle({ focus = false, find_file = true })
end
, { silent = true })

end

Steps to reproduce

1. nvim -nu /tmp/nvt-min.lua
2. while in normal mode in editor, press ,n
3. NvimTree opens
4. press ,n again to toggle the tree. The NvimTree doesn't close but refreshes/opens again.

Expected behavior

I expected that the ,n mapping toggles the window .ie it opens it first and closes it afterward.

Actual behavior

The tree opens as expected but the next ,n press doesn't close/toggle the tree

nvim-tree setup is intended to be called once at startup and again only if you have made configuration changes.

The first call is cheap, doing nothing more than validating and applying the configuration. Nothing happens until the tree is opened.
The subsequent calls are quite expensive, as they must tear down the world first.

Short answer: don't do this. Call setup once in your init.lua rather than your mapping.

Lazy loading: if you have a use case that absolutely requires lazy loading, please share it. I've not received a good answer other than "the cool factor".

Long answer: see :help nvim_tree_events_startup for two mechanisms you can use to determine whether nvim-tree has been setup, to conditionally call setup in your mapping.
