General Questions • [Software] Firefox telemetry

$

I have a question about Firefox.
I noticed a very annoying behaviour of the browser.
I like to adjust the Privacy and Security settings so that "Firefox Data Collection and Use" section (basically the telemetry) has all options disabled.
However, to my susprise, every time there is a new update in Firefox, I always find the option "Allow Firefox to send technical and interaction data to Mozilla" re-enabled.
Interestingly, all my other settings are preserved.

Now, the question is, is this supposed to be normal (honestly, I don't think so)? Is it a bug (I would hope so)? Since it is only that particular setting that gets re-enabled it makes me suspect that Mozilla is after the users' data.
