Why is Lightroom automatically changing my profile back to Adobe Standard after I have changed it to Beta on MacOS?

Question

When I try to sync settings to multiple images with the Beta profile on my Sony A7V images, the profile does not sync. When I do it one image at a time, it will sync the profile. However, more often than not, when I click on the image again, it has reverted back to Adobe Standard, leaving my images looking like hot garbage.
The Beta profile looks decent enough, but this bug is destroying my workflow.

I am using Lightroom Classic. Yes, I have Lightroom updated to the latest version. MacOS Tahoe 26.3.1

Lightroom keeps automatically changing my profile to Adobe Standard after I have changed it to Beta for Sony A7V files.

I have to either sync one image at a time for the Beta profile to sync, or I have to change the profile on each individual image. BUT, once I have changed it to Beta and then go work on a different image, it reverts back to Adobe Standard the next time I click on said image. If it would at least just stay with the Beta profile once I had applied it, it would be useable for now.
