MailFolders returns different results than MailFolders["ROOT"].ChildFolders

[kosa-gyula-77]

Describe the bug
MailFolders returns different results than MailFolders["ROOT"].ChildFolders.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Case MailFolders

var folders = await graphClient
    .Users[MailboxConfiguration.EmailAddress]
    .MailFolders
    .GetAsync(requestConfig =>
    {
        requestConfig.Headers.Add(Constants.Headers.PreferHeaderName, Constants.Headers.PreferHeaderImmutableIdValue);
        requestConfig.QueryParameters.Select = new[] { "id", "displayName" };
        requestConfig.QueryParameters.IncludeHiddenFolders = "true";
        requestConfig.QueryParameters.Top = 100;
    });

2. Case MailFolders["ROOT"].ChildFolders

var folders = await graphClient
    .Users[MailboxConfiguration.EmailAddress]
    .MailFolders["ROOT"].ChildFolders
    .GetAsync(requestConfig =>
    {
        requestConfig.Headers.Add(Constants.Headers.PreferHeaderName, Constants.Headers.PreferHeaderImmutableIdValue);
        requestConfig.QueryParameters.Select = new[] { "id", "displayName" };
        requestConfig.QueryParameters.IncludeHiddenFolders = "true";
        requestConfig.QueryParameters.Top = 100;
    });

Expected behavior
They return the same collection of folders.

Client version
"Microsoft.Graph" Version="5.32.0".
Version 4.x might have the same issue.

Thanks for raising this @kosa-gyula-77

As this question is about the behavior of the API returning different results based on the call, any chance you can post the question at the link below to get feedback from the API owners? As this repo is mainly intended for issues related to the SDK, we may not be best placed to answer. It would also be great if you could post back the link to the same so that anyone who has a similar question may also find it useful.
