Sync settings chosen during first-run setup are ignored. All sync types get turned on.

Steps taken

1. Install Outlook. (Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.office.outlook )
2. Sign in to Outlook.
3. Uninstall and re-install Edge. (Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.emmx )
4. Choose whether to set Edge as default browser.
5. Tap the tiny blue text, which says "Sync settings". (Not the tiny blue text immediately underneath, which says "Microsoft Privacy Statement").
6. All sync types are turned on by default. Turn off all sync items except one, e.g. Passwords.
7. Dismiss "Sync settings"
8. Re-open "Sync settings", to confirm your settings are still there. Then dismiss it again.
9. Sign in, or "Continue".
10. Continue setting up Edge.
11. Open the Edge menu.
12. Tap your account
13. Tap Sync.

Result: ALL sync items are turned on, despite having turned them off in step 6.

Request

Is this bug fixed, in a later version of Edge?

Note: This bug does not fit in the official feedback method for Edge for Android.

I am hoping the helpful elves at the other end of the Edge feedback form are reading this question.  Because I have sent them the link to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/6035494/edge-on-android-syncs-personal-data-history-paymen.

My environment

• Google Pixel 10a
• Android 17
