Why my RAW file is removed from the grid of the library after the Conversion to DNG?

Hi I'm new to LR and need to understand if this is a standard behavior.

My goal was simply to convert a native file RAW to DNG and have two files in the catalog and visible in the same library.

I imported a native heap of RAW + JPEG files in my catalog (as separate files). I did it from the inside of LR.

Then I selected and converted a RAW file to DNG (using library, convert to DNG, with "Delete originals after successful conversion" DESELECTED)

Against all odds, the RAW file (.) ORF in this case) is removed from the grid view library. A new DNG file appears in the view library, as expected.

I expect that the. File RAW ORF would remain and the new DNG would be added, that is, I see two files.

BTW I have Off filters.

In alarm, I looked at the folder with the Explorer (inside the LR), and (to my relief), the folder contains the RAW format. ORF, JPEG as well as the new DNG format

Suspecting that the RAW file has been removed from my catalog - I tried to import the RAW format. ORF again.

Import using - I can view the RAW file, but it is grayed out. And give me the message "seems to be a duplicate of another picture already in the catalog.

Since I DESELECTED 'Delete originals after successful conversion', I expect to stay visible in the library.

Seems I did something wrong or I'm a bad interpretation of the process. Is this a normal behavior?

Also, how to get back the RAW file in library view now that LR tells me that it is already in the catalog?

Lightroom works as expected.

I do not believe there is no option to keep the original gross as the dng in the same catalog. Maybe change the name of one of them is an option to consider.

Explain what you are trying to reach?
