Lots of that are defaults, of course, so mostly superfluous.

Based on that alone, can't be true. So there's some other reason it's picking that NameID Format, but it can't be using that profile config. What does the log say on DEBUG about the RelyingPartyConfiguration ID it's using?
Note that the reverse is very possible, you can always leave assertion signing off but have an SP trigger it with WantAssertionsSigned in metadata (and in fact that's the better way than using an override, but you need the override anyway, because of the NameID). But your case, no, if it says to sign, it would.
As always, you should not assume "unspecified" is actually required. It rarely is, usually that means you can set it to anything (meaning to something correct).
