That's the position it's in before the bike leans down onto it, which will slip that tab deeply into the groove between the two tangs.
It's actually very strong and stable.
@Hulkss was spot on in his description of how it works.

I wish I had this kick stand sensor on my RKS as I often start moving with this sucker unfolded. Thanks god they thought of that and allow this thing to fold when it touch the ground. Wonder if it would be possible to fit this to US model as I believe it is only non US model option.

On bikes with BCM it is an option switch that can be turned on and off even with HDI bikes that have jiffy stand sensors fitted.

My 2019 FLHTP has this sensor on it. My 2002 and my 1989 did not have this sensor. This can probably be added to your bike. Talk to you dealer.
