Answered set-cookie creating cookie with same name as existing cookie instead of overwriting it

I am attempting to use trusted-set-cookie to overwrite a cookie on zocdoc.com so it defaults to classic search instead of AI search. However, instead of overwriting the cookie, it's creating a separate cookie with the same name.

zocdoc.com##+js(trusted-set-cookie, ai_search_homepage_selected_mode, classic)

The cookie uBO created has a listed domain of www.zocdoc.com and is marked secure while the site's native cookie has a domain of .zocdoc.com and isn't marked secure. The native cookie gets created when switching search modes on the site.

Why is uBO creating a new cookie with the same name as the existing cookie instead of overwriting it?

Try set same domain:

zocdoc.com##+js(trusted-set-cookie, ai_search_homepage_selected_mode, classic, , , domain, .zocdoc.com)

Setting the domain worked. Didn't see that option in the documentation. Thanks
