iPhone read receipts are toggled off but sending read receipts

My iPhone read receipts are turned off but still sending read receipts. I have confirmed that the setting is indeed turned off in the Message on my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook. Is there a bug causing the iPhone to ignore my settings?

I am using iOS 17.5.1.

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 17

Problem solved. Read receipts were turned on for that contact. When that happens they still receive them, even when you turned them off in the app.
