Note again the difference between "connected" and "enabled" here. When you open
the laptop, this is not a connection event, so it is handled differently. Or at
least that is how it seems.

We really need more in-depth debugging in xfsettingsd to proceed, however it
looks as if it will need to query the open/closed state whenever a connection
event happens, and take it into account when choosing a profile or making an
automatic one.
