ViewBinding not working properly when replacing views

Question

I am converting an old project to viewBinding. BaseActivity has a coordinator layout. App changes view of relative layout which has main_view as id. For example when user opens WorkActivity, main_view switches with activity_work.

activity_base.xml

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout 
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/coordinator"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/background_main_screen"
    android:focusable="true"
    android:focusableInTouchMode="true">

    <include
        android:id="@+id/toolbar_layout"
        layout="@layout/toolbar_layout" />

    <RelativeLayout
        android:id="@+id/main_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:visibility="gone" />

    <RelativeLayout
        android:id="@+id/title_view"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:visibility="gone" />

    <RelativeLayout
        android:id="@+id/bottom_view"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:visibility="gone" />

    </androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

replaceViews function in BaseActivity:

    private void replaceViews(View holder, int layoutID) {
        View toReplace = getLayoutInflater().inflate(layoutID, binding.coordinator, false);
        ViewTools.replaceView(holder, toReplace);
    }

viewTools.replaceView function :

    public static void replaceView(View currentView, View newView) {
        ViewGroup parent = getParent(currentView);
        if (parent == null) {
            return;
        }
        final int index = parent.indexOfChild(currentView);
        removeView(currentView);
        removeView(newView);
        parent.addView(newView, index);
    }

Code snippet below (from replaceViews function in BaseActivity) seems to be the trouble, since binding has no effect or layout inflater does not inflate the view.

    View toReplace = getLayoutInflater().inflate(layoutID, binding.coordinator, false);

Is viewBinding compatible with replace operations like this? Did I forget any operation for layoutInflater?
