Tint values are set when prefab is used in scene even though they aren't overridden

See original GitHub issue

Phaser Editor 2D Version: v3.30.0 w/ Phaser Editor Extras
Operating System: Mac

Description

I have a button prefab that extends a text box prefab and overrides the tint values. If I use this button prefab in a scene, the generated code in the scene is also setting the tint values even though they are not overridden.

Note that the margins and textures are also overridden but those values aren’t repeated. Just seems to be the tint?

Button.ts

export default class Button extends ScaledTextBox {

    constructor(scene: Phaser.Scene, x?: number, y?: number) {
        super(scene, x, x);

        this.ninepatch.setTexture("button");
        this.ninepatch.tintTopLeft = 16742575;
        this.ninepatch.tintTopRight = 16742575;
        this.ninepatch.tintBottomLeft = 16742575;
        this.ninepatch.tintBottomRight = 16742575;
        this.ninepatch.ninePatchWidth = 472;
        this.ninepatch.ninePatchHeight = 241;
        this.ninepatch.marginLeft = 32;
        this.ninepatch.marginTop = 36;
        this.ninepatch.marginRight = 34;
        this.ninepatch.marginBottom = 36;
        this.defaultText.setPosition(29, 68);
        this.defaultText.setStyle({"fontSize":"96px"});

Splash.ts

        // letGoButton
        const letGoButton = new Button(this, 530, 573);
        this.add.existing(letGoButton);
        letGoButton.defaultText.tintTopLeft = 16742575;
        letGoButton.defaultText.tintTopRight = 16742575;
        letGoButton.defaultText.tintBottomLeft = 16742575;
        letGoButton.defaultText.tintBottomRight = 16742575;
        letGoButton.defaultText.setPosition(61, 57);
        letGoButton.defaultText.text = "Let's Go!";
        letGoButton.defaultText.setStyle({"fontSize":"120px"});
