Thanks for asking.

Cygwin version is 3.1.7 now

This is exactly what happens:

-------------------------------------------------
     (1) Screen looks like this:
-------------------------------------------------

martyn@linuxbox:~$ echo local command 1
local command 1
martyn@linuxbox:~$ echo local command 2
local command 2
martyn@linuxbox:~$ ssh Winuser@<remote IP>

-------------------------------------------------
     hit RETURN
-------------------------------------------------
     (2) Screen looks like this:
-------------------------------------------------

martyn@linuxbox:~$ echo local command 1
local command 1
martyn@linuxbox:~$ echo local command 2
local command 2
martyn@linuxbox:~$ ssh Winuser@<remote IP>
Last login: Thu Jan 21 14:52:35 2021 from <local IP>

Winuser@WINDOWS-BOX ~
$ echo I want to keep this output
I want to keep this output

Winuser@WINDOWS-BOX ~
$ vim /home/Winuser/editing-testtext.txt

Winuser@WINDOWS-BOX ~
$ ls /home/Winuser/editing-testtext.txt
/home/Winuser/editing-testtext.txt

Winuser@WINDOWS-BOX ~
$ exit

-------------------------------------------------
     hit RETURN
-------------------------------------------------
     (3) Screen looks like this:
-------------------------------------------------

Connection to <remote IP> closed.
martyn@linuxbox:~$ echo all lines are gone
all lines are gone
martyn@linuxbox:~$

-------------------------------------------------
     ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
-------------------------------------------------
- same behavior if I use "exit" or "logout".
     "bash_logout" gives me "command not found"
- shell is /bin/bash on both sides
- the command "cygcheck -c Cygwin" clears the local lines from
     screen (1) immediately even _before_ exit
