Short answer: dunno.

Another possibility: remember that Notes are associated with IMAPEr, I don't follow. These notes are explicitly in icloud rather than an

email account.
Technically they're in your icloud.com email account which, of course,
is in iCloud.
Go into Notes -> Accounts and you'll see a list of your current email
providers. Under the name of the account there is small text providing
more info.
For iCloud there's a ton of things e.g. Mail, Contacts, Calendars. For
other email providers it will just say Mail, Notes or Mail and Notes
depending.
Here, it's showing iCloud associated with Notes. And a gmail account as my iCloud email.
IOW, it looks to me as though iCloud is something separate to email accounts.
Rather belatedly: Notes started as a thing that stored its data in IMAP,
but for many yeasrs now it's stored directly as a database in iCloud and synced with your local machine(s).
Since this is Apple and they give zero tools for troubleshooting, about
the only thing you can try is
* Move any local notes to iCloud
* check on icloud.com to be sure they're all up there
* disable iCloud sync for Notes on the troublesome client
* clear your local Notes entirely
* re-enable iCloud sync.
Same routine as most other iCloud hosted synced things.
