Glad to hear you were able to sort it out! I was not immediately able to reproduce the behavior described in your OP.

At this time, the `default_categories_` site settings should **only** apply to the categories explicitly selected in the settings’ category pickers. Subcategories must be manually selected and are represented with their parent category in the list of options:

In the screenshot above, **Suppressed Subcategory** is a subcategory of **Admins**.

If you find that these settings are behaving unexpectedly at any point in the future, please let us know the steps to reproduce the problem!
