Changing racial picks reset issue

New to this game. I select an existing race, and hit NEXT, which brings up the pre-launch screen. Usually the ABILITIES button is yellow, and there are free points to spend. Tried the Drath yesterday and noted that they had a lot of bonuses along with some free points. So I try to spend the free points, and some of the bonuses go away, when I check back at the properties tab. I tried this with the Drengi and Yor and found the same thing. All these races have extra points displayed to start, but if you use them you lose some default bonuses. The Yor lost their +100% loyalty, for example.

It seems like all the points are being spent by default, but they arent showing up right in the ABILITIES tab. Is it better to start the game with free points left there, so you dont lose the bonuses by accident? Can you check in-game to see what your racial bonuses are? Is this just me or is this a common bug?

Yes noticed this from the beginning.

Why not make racial specific bonuses in different colour and perhaps even unremovable?
