I don't habitually use draft view, but I do use Word 2019, so my curiosity was aroused by this phenomenon. I confirm I was seeing the same page numbering issue, however here at least it was easy to fix by simply switching to print view, then back again to normal view with the document open. You can do it with one click using a simple macro from a quick access toolbar button.


Code:
Sub MyDraft()
    With ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View
        .Type = wdPrintView
        .Type = wdNormalView
    End With
End Sub
