I opened a new thread on the forum to inquire regarding this, please see here: Configuring a default setting for LuCI in a compiled firmware image

Configuring a default setting for LuCI in a compiled firmware image

It could also be done with a "run-once" script in /etc/uci-defaults/ (visible at /rom/etc/uci-defaults/ on a running device).

Edit: As an example, from /etc/uci-defaults/50_luci-mod-admin-full
        uci -q batch <<-EOF >/dev/null
                set luci.diag=internal
                set luci.diag.dns='${host:-openwrt.org}'
                set luci.diag.ping='${host:-openwrt.org}'
                set luci.diag.route='${host:-openwrt.org}'
                commit luci
        EOF

But it seems questionable if this is the best approach - as in, why is this happening in the first place on your builds but not stock OpenWrt? My theory - something due to the at-material theme?
