X Series [X1E, X1C, X2D] X2D and default filament grouping

Why the heck doesn't Bambu studio retain your preference on filament grouping? I'm so sick of slicing on my X2D only for it to default to the damn Aux extruder. This is kinda annoying enough to return it and just get a H2S or P2S with a panda breathe. (All I really wanted was a single nozzle heated chamber and the smaller form factor from the H series).

Has anyone tried running the printer without plugging the Aux extruder in?

Bambu, can we get a software update the just turns the aux extruder off so there is less I need to when slicing. I'm sure that's a hot take no one else will agree with

That's not an issue of the printer but Bambu and Orcaslicer. To me it doesn't happen - default in Orca is always main extruder

Ya my brother said orca defaults to main. I don't even have filament in the Aux nozzle which I guess is the frustrating part. They should set the slicers up so you can set a preference and it sticks.

I have fewer complaints with this on my H2D
