I think I was wrong in assuming that Gnus was previously able to descend
subdirs in my setup. I checked the remote IMAP server and noticed that
it didn't use subdirs until recently, and I had put these groups in a
subtopic in Gnus, which I took the habit of mistaking for a correct
representation of the structure of the IMAP server. It's easier for now
to configure the IMAP to use a flat structure and use topics in Gnus.

Thanks for your help and sorry for this false representation of what
was finally not a problem…
