Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Page does not scroll to bottom of the conversation in #expensify-roadmap public room

What is the root cause of that problem?

App/src/pages/home/report/ReportActionsList.tsx

Line 427 in b2d6a0e

return;

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

The return statement can be removed here, as it was added simply to follow a similar logic in scrollToBottomAndMarkReportAsRead, as noted in #46724 (comment). Removing it won't affect functionality in this context.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)
