The flags to control which of them should be visible in the runtime are IsItemNotesPlainTextVisible and IsItemNotesFormattedTextVisible accordingly.

This is the reason why you could observe the different behavior in different tenant in the runtime:

For sure these flags are determined by BC scoping in backend:
