I don't have an answer, but the last time I edited a boot entry, it did
not have this behavior, the change was temporary.  It sounds like a
bug rather than a feature.  If it was legitimate, it should also change
GRUB_CMDLINELINUX in /etc/default/grub to reflect the change.

I don't recall seeing any discussion of a change like this, but I could
have missed it.
