Odd behavior of Varbase landing page layout builder

Problem/Motivation

Yes, I know I should not have built a production site on 10.x but --- at the time I started the project I figured 10.x would be released by the time I got the site moved to production. That was my own mistake. But I am seeing an odd behavior on 10.0.0-rc1. If I enable the Varbase layout builder landing page module I can enable custom layouts per node, make some custom layouts, then turn the custom layouts OFF for that content type. This results in bad behavior where every time a node is entered the site tries to redirect to setting up a custom layout. I then get a no permission error on that page. I do end up with a page with the default layout, but the behavior is confusing.

Steps to reproduce

1. Enable Varbase Landing Page (Layout Builder) module

2. Create a content type with a layout builder display. Set it to be able to have a custom layout for each page.

3. Create a node with a custom layout.

4. Turn off the custom layout option for the content type (which normally would not be allowed because there are already custom layouts in place).

5. Build a NEW node. On the first save of the content the site will redirect to trying to set up a custom layout but fails with a permission denied error.

If I then disable the varbase landing page module the site will then no longer allow me to disable custom layouts, which is more the expected behavior.

Proposed resolution

Though it is a little annoying to be unable to turn off the custom layouts after a custom layout is created, I think that is the normal expected behavior. I don't think I should be able to turn custom layouts off after the fact.
