Sim Changes Flight Plan when Choosing Gate or Parking as departure

We all know that when planning a flight the sim always chooses a runway as a start location. Not an ideal location to spawn to.

So regardless of whether I type a flight plan in manually, or load one from a file that is saved elsewhere, why does the sim change my flight plan when I then choose a gate or parking area to start up? It’s not something as simple as changing a single waypoint. Sometimes the entire flightplan is altered.

The was an issue in a previous update, and it was rectified, so why has it reared it’s head yet again?
