I can't reproduce this. I think the first step is for you to try to
identify which sequence of actions as performed from an Emacs
session started with -Q lead to the problem. For the record, I tried
Emacs -Q (master of around two weeks ago)
C-h v completion-styles RET
C-h v completion-styles-alist RET
type "completion-styles" in *scratch* buffer. With cursor on word.
C-h v RET (quickly, before the completions appear)
C-h v RET (slowly, letting the completions appear)
Both approaches lead to the variable `completion-styles` being
described.
