Why does my iPhone lock screen go dark while i am trying to view the notifications?

This issue is not unique to my personal phone (11 Pro Max). I have an SE (2020) that also does the same thing. My phone is sitting on my desk. I receive a notification. While swiping the notification to see the information, the screen will fade to black, even though my finger is still in the motion of swiping. A simple tap of my finger on the screen will light up the lock screen, but why does it not stay lit when I am swiping?
