This tells me a lot. You have systemd, and I think NetworkManager. You need to use those tools, not the command line, it will manage the configuration files for you, it will overwrite any manual changes. I do not like NetworkManager, nor Systemd. I can tell NetworkManager to ignore a particular ethernet interface successfully, then use ifup and ifdown, but not for wi-fi. For that, there are the command line tools, but there are several steps and coordinating the use of the discovery and connection is not so trivial.
