As it turns out the swatch was in use by the plugin.
If the same happens to you — try to check all the symbols, graphics styles, anything like this in the document that might use the swatch.

An error occurred while saving the comment Thank you Egor. I tried it out some more, and I think understand how it works. The issue is that editing a color this way does not update the global swatch. Is there a way to link the output of the recolor artwork option to the existing global swatch?
An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks Egor. This panel is very complex and upon opening it, it changes all of my colors as seen in these two screenshots. I think find/replace color is a much more straightforward way to say "anywhere swatch A is used, change it to swatch B". I don't even know where to begin with the recolor artwork panel unfortunately. Thanks for your suggestion.

An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks, Egor. I didn't know of that option! I wish it was closer to the select options so it was more obvious.
I also wish there was a way to adjust multiple tints with differing fills at once. So tint settings would be independent of fills, but I know this is a kind of unique use case. So more generally I'm just looking for a robust selection system that can combine attributes granularly as described by the OP.
Thanks for the tip though. That will definitely come in handy!
An error occurred while saving the comment I think this is a great idea.
An addition to select same tint on it's own would be nice, but to expand it so you can select the same tint % plus a fill or stroke would allow you to choose between selecting specifically any matching tint %, or a tint % of a particular fill.
Select same fill could then be made to select only the fill, whereas now it select the fill regardless of tint %, meaning if your goal is to select the same fill and change the swatch, any tints in use are discarded.
So a robust selection dialog with many parameters that can be combined in granular form would be a game changer.

An error occurred while saving the comment Also very interested in this. It is so difficult to paste hex codes into swatches. Seems like a no-brainer to add a hex field at the bottom of the prompt. Thanks!

An error occurred while saving the comment I should add that moving/nudging the .bmp slightly also changes it back to the correct color.

Hi Everyone,
The fix for this request is available in our latest release build – 27.3. The version is being rolled out.
What’s new in 27.3: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/whats-new/2023-2.html
Thank you for all the feedback.
An error occurred while saving the comment Thank you for the update. I really wish this applied to editing global colors. Whenever you double click on a global swatch to edit, it defaults to CMYK. I have to switch this to HSV every single time.
Also would like to second the original poster that HSV should be the default. I work in both RGB and CMYK color spaces, but always start with HSV and then dial in CMYK numbers as needed.

The latest Beta build 29.4.0.2 fixes this finally.
Now groups get the applied appearance positioned above the Contents in the Appearance panel.
Anyway — always check the full Appearance panel when you work with the Eyedropper tool with both Appearance options checked, because with this fix it’s getting easier to accidentally apply an additional appearance to the group itself, instead of changing the style of its components.
Happy illustrating!
Thanks! Initially it reappeared, and I had deleted all symbols, brushes, styles, anything i could think that could be using it, but it happened to be a swatch setting in the astute plugin AG Block Shadow. Thank you for helping me think this through.
