I think it is not understood how the condicional format works.
For a range, like B18:M19 it analyzes the conditions for every cell, varying
accordingly the relative ranges in the conditions.
E.g. for B18 -> $Budget.$B23 is analyzed, for B19 -> $Budget.$B24 is it.

If you want the ranges not to be merged, use an absolute reference also for the
row $Budget.$B$23

This was done to reduce duplicated ranges with the same conditions.
