Is that a rhetorical question? If not, I don't understand what you are asking.
There is only one session (the unnamed session), so that must be the session
that is opened.
If I execute "Sessions | Save As" and create a named session, then exit and
restart, there is still only the "Unnamed" session in the "Sessions |
Select
session" list.

BUT which session did you open?? (see below)
All I can advise is that AFTER closing the
sidebar, MANUALLY save the
session (sessions, save) close Kate, then open it again. The sidebar
should remain closed.
At the "Sessions | Save" point, after closing the sidebar, I am prompted
for a session name, which suggests that I will no longer have just one
session.
But I gave it a name anyway. Then I closed kate. Then opened kate again.
And the sidebar was still present. There is only 1 thing I can advise.
You need to read about Kate's sessions. They are in integral aspect of Kate.
Where do I do that? I've tried (and tried), and can't find anything that is
complete, unambiguous and correct.
Finally, open Kate, using the menu, choose the
'new' session which you named,
just to check if *that* session has the sidebar showing
I can't choose the new session; the only session in the "select sessions"
list
is still the "Unnamed" session.
In other words:
1. Open blank kate.
This has a sidebar with "Untitled" in it.
2. Remove sidebar.
3. Save session, giving it the name "Fred".
4. File | Quit.
5. Open blank kate.
This has a sidebar with "Untitled" in it.
6. Look at "Sessions | Select session"
There is only one entry, called "Unnamed"
