I read the instructions on the wiki: http://www.dds6qkxpwdeubwucdiaord2xgbbeyds25rbsgr73tbfpqpt4a6vjwsyd.onion/wiki/Bisq#Tor_over_Tor_Prevention

When using the current Bisq version v1.9.17 you can disable Tor with the option Use Tor for Bitcoin network under settings. Isn’t this enough to prevent Tor-over-Tor scenario?

Additionally, what is the specific reason you need to perform the mentioned platform specific steps regarding bind-dirs?

There’s literally

Why is this needed? Optional. See footnote for reasons why. Users can skip this step. [10]

Can’t you figure that out yourself by learning about bind-dirs?

Thanks for pointing me into the right direction. I misunderstood that further steps are optional for the current version.

I will investigate regarding bind-dirs.
