If you change from show to showNormal it will also reset states like maximized or fullscreen. From windowing system point that's bad as the state changes. Given that restore as minimized is from windowing system perspective correct. Now I agree that restoring to minimized might not make much sense, but then this needs to be special cased to ensure that maximized state does not get destroyed.
