I agree that it's [expletive deleted] annoying. I understood it to be related to copying Staff Styles, but I can't get any rhyme or reason out of it.
You have the right solution, though. Just before you go to work on the parts, select the Staff Tool, Select All, then go to the Staff menu and select "Apply selected staff styles to parts". You only have to do it once per chart, as long as you don't add any more Staff Styles afterward. Also, open a case with MakeMusic and complain about it.
