Strange side effect of a PHP post query code

    Why this code in functions.php has this strange side effect of switching the menu to the mobile version in not-home pages ?

    function my_blog_category( $query ) {
 if ( $query->is_home() && !is_front_page() || is_archive()) {
 $query->set( 'cat', '6');
 }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'my_blog_category' );

    This code works, the problem is its side effect of completely changing the nav with the mobile version that obviously at desktop width has “display:none;” so in the end I have the right posts query but no primary menu. This is odd.

    So how should I change the code?
    I tried to group something, the code still works but same side effect.

    function my_blog_category( $query ) {
    if ( $query->is_home() && ( !is_front_page() || is_archive() ) ) {
        $query->set( 'cat', '6');
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'my_blog_category' );
