grubby changes the per-kernel options (in the entries files), it has never cared about what was in /etc/default/grub.
Typically /etc/default/grub is useless because typically no one ever runs grub2-mkconfig, so the file is kind of pointless. And kernel installs copy the options from one of the other kernels(likely the currently booting on), so if you have the right options on the other kernels then it will copy the right options.
