That's by intention: new style defaults do not affect legacy defaults and vice versa. If it did, one could override new style defaults multiple times, which was one thing to avoid.
It looks like old style defaults are also set. I would assume that they are set AFTER the file writers. old style is position dependent. Please also note that "keep existing config" is advice only for simple actions without many parameters. If you set file owner etc it is definitely much easier to do via new style.
