Server Version#: 1.18.5.2309

Client is Plex add-on for Kodi.
I’m playing a HEVC 10bit file as test subject :

<Stream id="55454" streamType="1" default="1" codec="hevc" index="0" bitrate="1975" bitDepth="10" chromaSubsampling="4:2:0" colorRange="tv" frameRate="23.976" height="1080" level="120" profile="main 10" refFrames="1" requiredBandwidths="56804,35225,4064,4064,4064,4064,4064,4064" width="1920" displayTitle="1080p (HEVC Main 10)"/>
<Stream id="55455" streamType="2" selected="1" default="1" codec="eac3" index="1" channels="6" bitrate="640" language="English" languageCode="eng" audioChannelLayout="5.1(side)" requiredBandwidths="640,640,640,640,640,640,640,640" samplingRate="48000" displayTitle="English (EAC3 5.1)"/>
<Stream id="55456" streamType="3" selected="1" codec="srt" index="2" bitrate="0" language="English" languageCode="eng" requiredBandwidths="1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1" displayTitle="English (SRT)"/>
<Stream id="55457" streamType="3" codec="srt" index="3" bitrate="0" language="English" languageCode="eng" requiredBandwidths="1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1" displayTitle="English (SRT)"/>

Starting playback, Plex Media Server.log' shows :

Feb 01, 2020 13:27:04.922 [0x7f37cffff700] DEBUG - [Now] Device is Kodi (Kodi Add-on (LibreELEC)).
Feb 01, 2020 13:27:04.923 [0x7f37cffff700] DEBUG - [Now] Profile is Kodi Plex Addon Raspberry PI

So, cat RaspberryPi.xml :

</Client>

Notice the lack of directplayprofiles, notice the test limitations I have set.

Why is it doing this :

(Yes, I have done sudo systemctl restart plexmediaserver.service after each edit to the profile.
