Well that is not quite true. It does somewhat depend on the function selected for the dock, Although admittedly less than consistent.
I am using linux here, which is where Gimp comes from, so Windows might be different.
If I open Gimp, no image, I can get the layers down to a minimum (1) Add an image and some layers, it does grow but comes with scroll bars to scroll up and down the window (2) Some come without scroll bars, your example with the navigation window is one. The one that always gets me is the dynamics editor which is large (3) Unfortunately that size is persistent and switching back to the layers, I lose the vertical scroll bar. (4)
I have been using Gimp long enough to live with that (I have fixed dock sizes on a Gimp restart) but I understand your annoyance. Maybe put in a feature request for scroll bars on all windows to the Gimp developers. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues
