Not a chance  :>).  Not an oversight. Deliberate choice.

Turning a rig off/on is supposed to reset everything except configuration
settings and start it over after such things as power spikes, yada, yada.
Having test mode persist across power cycles would create a lot of
confusion. Same kind of angst as having a firmware update hang before
completion.

Test mode is and always has been TEMPORARY. If you want your no power out
to persist, then turn PWR level to zero. That will persist.
