Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Epiphany: load a website, then maximize and unmaximize the window, and compare it with an empty window or another standard system app. Done means the loaded Epiphany window no longer crashes or splits into two pieces during the animation.

Description
first, congratulations to everyone for the release of elementary OS 6, a great advance and an amazing job.
i am opening this issue because i didn't find it among the ones already open, if i am wrong, please notify me.
what happened?
when maximizing or unmaximize the Epiphany window with a loaded site, it crashes, displaying a non-standard behavior. The window splits in two pieces.
this does not happen when a site is not loaded, and as far as I was able to test, it doesn't happen with the other standard system apps.

how to reproduce?
- open Epiphany
- load a site
- maximize/unmaximize the Epiphany window
