No it is not fixed. I was messing with a couple templates to REMOVE the sidebar completely. The single topic view still has it:

You can see it is below the whole thing.
I think this is becuase I am an admin, but why would a topic created by a site admin be hidden with no way to change the view? That is stupid!
The topic shows ‘hidden” and I don’t know how to unhide it. The FOrums are not hidden.
