Thanks for bringing this up! After reviewing the details, it seems like the behaviour you've reported is actually expected and not a bug. We can understand how this might seem confusing, so we've added a note to clarify things.

If you have any questions or need more details, feel free to reach out again, we're here to help!

Note that n8n has introduced workflow versioning with v2, which replaced the activation switch with Publish button. Publishing your workflow activates it and locks it into a specific version. To deactivate, simply unpublish your workflow from the dropdown menu(workflow settings).
