Clicking 'view yours' from any taxon page adds the "photos=true" filter to the search results

Please fill out the following sections to the best of your ability, it will help us investigate bugs if we have this information at the outset. Screenshots are especially helpful, so please provide those if you can.

Platform (Android, iOS, Website): Website

Browser, if a website issue (Firefox, Chrome, etc) : Opera

Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):

Step 1: Go to any taxon page, eg https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/13479-Dasyornis-longirostris

Step 2: Click the ‘view yours’ button

Step 3: Unprompted, the ensuing page now has the “photos=true” filter added to it:
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?photos=true&taxon_id=13479&preferred_place_id=6744&user_id=thebeachcomber&verifiable=any

I have never noticed this occurring before; surely this is unintended behaviour?

I can replicate (Website/Firefox), but don’t know if it’s new or always been that way, as I have only one observation without photos. Agree that this should be considered a bug, as I can think of no good reason for it.

Made a Github issue here: https://github.com/inaturalist/inaturalist/issues/4223
