SUMMARY
"Data and Storage Sizes" setting not properly applied

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings/Region & Language
2. Open "Data and Storage Sizes"
3. Select JEDEC
4. Re-login/Restart
5. Open System Settings/Region & Language again
6. Open "Data and Storage Sizes"
7. Select IEC. You are returned to the previous page and the "Apply" button is enabled.
8. Press Apply. No message appears (i.e. "Changes will take effect the next time you log in"). *** Possible bug??? ***
9. Open "Data and Storage Sizes"
10. Select JEDEC. You are returned to the previous page and the "Apply" button is NOT enabled. *** Possible bug??? ***

OBSERVED RESULT
In step 8, the message about re-login did not appear.
In step 10, the Apply button was not enabled.

EXPECTED RESULT
In step 8, i expected the message about re-login to appear.
In step 10, i expected the Apply button to be enabled.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: Neon
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.7.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In general, if you continue changing the "Data and Storage Sizes" and close and reopen System Settings, sometimes the message is displayed and sometimes it isn't and the button sometimes is active and sometimes it's not. If you have selected a value different than the previously selected, the message should appear and the apply button should be enabled, regardless of whether the new value is the active value in the current session. As is now, it's confusing and leaves the user unsure of what is saved.
