This is expected, quoting from ":help syntax":
The ":syntax enable" command will keep your current color settings.
This allows using ":highlight" commands to set your preferred colors
before or after using this command. If you want Vim to overrule
your settings with the defaults, use:
:syntax on
Cheers.
