The confusion here is causd by the externally renamed profile retaining the
original internal name, which is then used by software in popdown menus and
similar uses. So the second version of the profile is in fact being used,
just not properly discribed due to the internal/external name mismatch. The
moral of the story is that profiles should not be renamed, unless a utility
that changes the internal name as well is used.
