Very confusing indeed
I also don't really understand how it works.
As I stated for assigning the gear change on my wheel, such "problem" are unnecessary in 2018, including early access, just because it is for sure "easy" to correct.
How can the "kunos" team not have seen that the preset saving is so strange at the moment ?
(I like the idea of having base preset for different conditions including hotlaps, but it should works without any doubt)
