KDE PowerDevil/power-profiles-daemon vs MControlCenter?

[numerosmg]

On 6.9.8-arch1-1 Archlinux KDE6 plasma, EC version: 14L1EMS1.307, MSI Modern 14 H, it seems like KDE's PowerDevil overwrites MCC "Mode" setting? Or the current "mode" doesn't get updated on one app when changed on the other app?

Other MCC settings seem to work, though battery threshold seems to work kinda wonky:

If I set it to 60%, at 60% current charge the "Charging status" shows "Unknown". The KDE tray battery icon displays: "Battery at 60%, not charging". At the same settings, if I'm on current charge like 80%, it will still just "not charge", and not discharge.

It should discharge if way over the threshold, or am I wrong?

I THINK I've enabled ec_sys.write_support=1.

$ cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE= rw ec_sys.write_support=1 loglevel=3 quiet

but
