Disabling hierarchical collation is not saved on the report

Version: 25.10.1001 on-prem

I have a cross tab where I would like to disable hierarchical collation so I can sort on different dimensions. When I disable hierarchical collation and save the document, it is re-enabled when I open the document. I have tried both by right clicking on the cross-tab and changing it in the Properties tab. I have also saved both versions of the files and ran a diff and they match, which tells me this property I am setting is not being persisted.

This is important for our user base since they most expect to be able to sort the cross tabs by any columns within, irrespective of the hierarchies. This causes issues for our users with designer privileges that are making reports for their colleagues to view in Anywhere, since they are unable to disable hierarchical collation on their own.
