5.1.7 CP ignores all saved print parameters in "project" files (3mf) and (cxprj)

I do not understand what the problem is but absolutely nothing that I setup for any project file other than filament slot and position of the parts on the plate is loaded when a ‘project’ is opened. All the print settings are whatever they are right now. The model is loaded and that is it. So I have to personally recall absolutely every print setting needed to print this design again and of course remember to undo anything currently set that might not be applicaable. Supports, infill, perimeters, brims, rafts. I have to personally reset them all? That can not be the purpose of a saved “project”?

It is completely non-sensical and non-functional. I can’t find any setting or checkbox that would alter this behaviour. The settings ARE in there because if I open the 3mf files in other functional software the settings I used when I saved the project are clearly there.

I’m running on an Apple M1 laptop. Anyone know if this is just another ‘too bad that’s how it is’ thing or is there a way to get this to work as it would be expected to?
