Describe the bug

When navigating between pages in base/web, the scroll position sometimes resets to the top even when returning to a previously viewed page. This breaks expected navigation behavior and can be frustrating for users browsing longer pages.

Steps

  1. Open a page with long content.
  2. Scroll down several sections.
  3. Navigate to another page using an internal link.
  4. Use the browser back button or in-app navigation to return.
  5. Observe that the scroll position resets to the top.

Expected behavior

The application should preserve or restore scroll position when navigating back to a previously visited page, matching typical web navigation expectations.
