Thank you for the bug report!

Please note that Plasma 5.26.1 will not be supported for much longer by KDE; supported versions are 5.27, and 5.27 or newer.

Please upgrade to the latest version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.

I retested with other Application Alternatives by right clicking and selecting Show Alternatives. 
The Application Launcher or Application Dashboard alternatives do not reflect my changes. 
The Application Menu alternative shows all my changes from the Menu Editor.
