unchecking "use document bleed settings" box in "Save Adobe PDF" does not remove the bleed from the saved file.
version illustrator 30.1
windows 11
issue also replicated on illustrator 30.0 on a mac
1: create new document with some amount of bleed in "document setup"
2: save as .pdf will bring up "Save Adobe PDF" Dialog
3: uncheck "use document bleed settings" box and save the .pdf
4: open document saved in step 3, it still has the document bleeds that should have been removed by unchecking the "use document bleed settings" box
the print dialog box also has the use document bleed settings check box, it works correctly when I print to a .pdf file with the "use document bleed settings" box unchecked

I try to reproduce this on Windows 11 and can’t so far, the bleed doesn’t force itself into the PDF.
Can you tell what preset you use as a base one when you uncheck the option? Do the fields have have non-zero values when you disable it?
