I found that hard to read, but I think I see on line 657 that js-output is set to "." and that makes me wonder if the compiler will then choose whatever the working directory is at the time it is launched. If that working directory is changed by VSCode to be the last output directory (maybe to launch the results in a browser), that might cause the compiler to nest the next output in that output directory and cause the observed results.

The goal was to see what output options were actually being received by the compiler in order to understand how those options could be causing the compiler to generate nested output folders. I'm curious to know if the js options are in the dump file. Can't tell since you cut them out. Sorry, I misunderstood this. But I am still not sure what do you mean with "js options". I've created a gist which contains the entire dump [1]. Maybe you can find some time to look at it? Thanks!
