This might simply be a misunderstanding of what openTextDocument() does. It just creates a vscode.TextDocument instance, actually showing it in the UI is independent of that. That's why it's in the vscode.workspace namespace rather than vscode.window.
vscode.window.showTextDocument is used for actually showing a document:
Show the given document in a text editor. A column can be provided
to control where the editor is being shown. Might change the active editor.
vscode.workspace.openTextDocument(...).then(
document => vscode.window.showTextDocument(document));

I didn't even notice that it was a method on the workspace rather than the window. Too much convenience and editor magic (autocomplete).
