Any ideas? I'm still under the impression that this is a bug.

Do you have local logging disabled?
-
-
Does it give the correct remote behavior if you enable local logging?

Nope, when I enable local logging while keeping "System Events, Firewall Events, DHCP service events, etc. selected", the remote logging effectively stops. DHCPD events still get pushed through as well as some other services, but according to my firewall rules, PF should be pumping out messages like crazy. Something just isn't right here…

I was finally able to reproduce this, but it's odder than even you describe.
I can set it up and make no changes, and it works every other time I press Save.
Press Save, they work. Press Save, they stop. Press save, they work again. Press Save, they stop again. [Repeat]
And the same behavior happens whether I have "everything" checked or just the firewall events.

Ah, yep you are correct! I probably didn't notice this because I was other time for me I was also switching between "Everything" and selecting individual settings… I'm glad that you are able to reproduce this issue! Hopefully we can get a fix soon :)

Tracked down the fix for this.
The tcpdump process that was logging from pf was being killed but not restarted as expected.
It'll be fixed in snapshots that pick up this commit (late today, tomorrow, etc): https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/32fb33927d51dd73ba9d0ef5b483efe66328c92c
