This only happens when an internal check passes; otherwise the theme is set the way it was before.\n\n**Why**\n\nIn practice this is a small change to setup: if saving your chosen theme fails, you may now see why.\n\n- Area: Themes\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
