When there are sequential stages in a parallel stage then the display of them is often not correct and very inconsistent - i.e. sometimes the display changes even from one build to the next.
This seems to apply only to running builds. As soon as the build is completed the stages are displayed correctly.

Note: this seems to be related to JENKINS-55320, but that one is about BlueOcean 1.9 and scripted stages. This one is about declarative stages.

E.g. in one build the stage 'Integration Tests' was showing the sequential stages of the stage 'IWG | DBG'. See

In other instances the sequential stages are correctly mapped to the parallel stages, but the sequential steps in 'IWG | DBG' are shown grey all the time, even if they are already finished.

This is the relevant part of my Jenkinsfile:
{code:java}
stage("Run Tests") {

    parallel {
        stage("Acceptance Tests") {

            steps {
                ...
            }
        }
    }

    stage("Integration Tests") {

        steps {
            ....
        }
    }

    stage("IWG | DBG")  {
        stages {
            stage("IWG Tests") {
                steps {
                    ...
                }
            }

            stage("DBG Tests") {
                steps {
                    ...
                }

            }
        }
    }

    stage("Payment Acceptance Tests") {
        steps {
            ...
        }
    }
} {code}

Also clicking on click-selecting these grey-but-already-finished stages is often - but not always - not possible.

Re: Blue Ocean display of sequential stages in parallel stages is flaky

We see the same flaky behavior, re: nodes complete but not showing as complete (and often not clickable).

Also, note the truncation in the picture you've attached, re: the name of that stage. The truncation of that stage name is too aggressive, making it useless (https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-55393)

Any update on this?
It didn't become any better with the latest BlueOcean updates.
It's IMO basically unusable as long as the build is running.
For one because you sometimes cannot select the later branches: wherever I click, always the steps for the 1st branch are displayed - even it the other branch is displayed as selected in the UI.
For 2nd, even if you manage to select a different branch, often the logs display switches to a different branch, if that branch gets new log updates
