What's going on with Firefox?

Second try, shorter and less confusing than before:
* DNSoverHttps interfering with my DNS block
* shown to be enabled in about:policies
* set to disabled in policies.json as well as in about:settings.
The picture shows a console window witch the respective policies.json key being set to false (disabled), while the about:policies firefox page in the background shows DoT to be enabled.
Version is 140.1.0esr on Artix (Arch). Anyone can confirm?
Edit: It's not a broken profile; same happens in a fresh one.

Policy is the internal way of saying "this is enabled by default to be allowed by the user". There are user settings to control this, so go through your preferences settings and check.
I don't really know what this means, what should be considered wrong in this?
Maybe that it reads "enabled: false", which means disabled, but it just reads enabled on the right. That suggests it is working while in reality it isn't.
The graphical interface shows enabled, but the config file (the really important one) says disabled.
Looks right to me. Does Firefox require a reboot on Linux to recognise newly added keys? (It does on Windows with the registry)
Madiator's Corner
Are these settings in about:config ?
... it's weather they match there that would be important (not in some AI slop output).
…okay, i'll make the wording more clear.
