In your recipe, ypu don't mention enabling fido-vertical-mode. Running
your recipe as-it-is works for me as expected.

With fido-vertical-mode enabled, this is bug #51386 and #52758, I'm
merging this bug with them. It is an unfortunate problem Tramp cannot
solve alone.

Hmm, this I cannot reproduce locally. Perhaps you have typed three
slashes "///" in order to change the directory? Could you pls give an
exact recipe, starting with "emacs -Q"?

Best regards, Michael.
