maybe this could be extracted, since we duplicate this complex condition in a few places? it would also be more expressive by self-documenting with a name

e => {
e.preventDefault()
collapseMobileSearch()
},
)

I think we should just collapse the input if it doesn’t have a value or if it’s not focused. We shouldn’t need an additional button for this. And if I recall, we added a button to clear the input which would effectively serve the same purpose if the search did have a value.
