Well, it won't happen.
Dolphin used to store the user folder under Internal Storage => dolphin-emu, but since November, new apps and updates to existing apps on the Play Store must target API 30 (Android 11). By targeting API 30, the app must comply with Scoped Storage, so it can only read/write to specific locations and that's why Dolphin now defaults to Android => data => org.dolphinemu.dolphinemu. You can read more about that on this progress report and on this wiki page...
