I did my way because I want to set org-agenda-file-regexp and 
consistently use it any place the regexp is needed.

Yes, this happens with every .org file. My org files have no local 
options at all, and all those variables you mentioned seem OK to me. The 
most puzzling thing, as I said before, is if you open a file the second 
time, the folding works, but not on the same file when opened the first 
time. Why would first time/second time make a difference on how org-mode 
behaves? Who is tracking whether the file is opened the first time or 
not? Scratching my head hard...
