Unexpected middleware/cookies() behavior

When a cookie is set in the middleware but blocked by the browser, if you use
cookies() in the layout or page it will still retrieve the cookies that were never actually set. cookies() appears to be accessing both the cookies from the response and request vs just the request. I don't see a workaround.1 Reply

Even more weird. This issue only occurs when the cookie is set in the NextResponse.next()
Setting it with cookies() seems to work as expected. If the cookie is blocked by the browser, other cookies() can't access it
This is in the middleware
const response = NextResponse.next();
response.cookies.set({*variables*});
return response;Setting it with cookies() seems to work as expected. If the cookie is blocked by the browser, other cookies() can't access it
const cookieStore = await cookies();
cookieStore.set({*variables*});
return NextResponse.next();This is in the middleware
