You're right, I just tried that as well, haven't used it for a couple of days. This used to work better before the latest watchOS 10.5 update.
Maybe we should use the Feedback link to make Apple aware of that:
To fix it disappearing, you need to go to the Watch app on your iPhone > Accessibility > Auto-Select Focused App. Turn that off, and the App Switcher should work fine. Why this isn’t off by default, I don’t know.

Possibly because, unless there is an issue with the app, Apple doesn't recommend force closing them?
Thank you but somehow that does not seem to work. That screen disappears within seconds.
I just submitted feedback for this issue, you should do the same. The more people report this, the higher the chances, that Apple Techs will take a closer look at this behaviour.
Thank you!!
I'll try that now.
It's confusing why the behavior would be so inconsistent if it's a setting causing the issue...
