Research direction
Investigate the focus navigation logic in the calculator's UI code, particularly the 'Functions' button. Check XAML files related to scan mode or Narrator handling. Look for duplicated focus triggers or event handlers that cause double navigation. Test with and without scan mode to isolate the issue.
