why is my laptop so aggressive at offloading iCloud Drive files or disconnecting from iPhone hotspot? And how to fix these things?

Basically as the title says, my laptop is super aggressive at removing files also saved on iCloud Drive. It doesnt even tell me. Usually files won't open but won't give an error message so I navigate to the folder and find out the file must be downloaded from iCloud before continuing. I have 55gb free (out of 512gb of storage space) and it literally offloaded a 25kb .docx file I last used 17 hours ago. It's ridiculous. Hotspotting from my iphone is a similar story. Blink it's disconnected. Literally sometimes it will time-out while I'm web browsing cos I spent too long reading a wiki article or whatever. How do I fix these things cos I can't find anything in settings and really impacting the usefulness of the features. (macOS v15.1.1)
