Taking a look 👀

The regression came from this PR Fix: Wallet page does not update instantly when bank account is added or deleted.

I agree that the wallet amount shouldn't refresh or have to load when you change the default payment method. However, I think this "bug" is arguable more minor than the one fixed by that PR, which is that the wallet page doesn't update when adding or removing a bank account. I think we should put up a quick fix, and if we start holding up the deploy we can remove the blocker label.

@Pujan92 do you want to put up a quick fix? I'll start investigating too.

Ok so the OpenPaymentsPage API command returns bank accounts, funds, user wallet, paypal, and card list. The user wallet is where the balance comes from and that's why we show a loader when it's updating. That makes sense, but again, we shouldn't need to update the balance when adding or removing bank accounts.

So why did we decide to call this API command again when a bank account is added or deleted? The APIs which do that should return the updated list of bank accounts.
