I don't have this issue on my 2013 C4S. Early on, i set everything the way I wanted it (A/C off) before turning off the car, and i hit the "save to key" buttons on the door( one marked SET and the other marked KEY.) Now when I use that key to start the car, the settings are as I left them when i programmed the door buttons.
fyi, I do have Entry and Drive, not sure if that makes a difference.

I have a 2013 C4S with keyless entry and I have the same problem as the OP. Tried storing a/c or fan "off" into the key. If I lock the car and unlock, or even just press "3" to recall the key settings, the fan come back on.
It's obvious the fan-off setting is NOT stored into the key when a immediate "3" recall will bring the fan back on.
Are Hammer911 and trysixty saying that they don't have this issue? I thought this is hard-coded as the OP said.

I'll have to get in my car and fiddle with the settings to see how I got there. Regarding DKC64's comment...I never touch the 1, 2 or 3 setting buttons since I originally set to the keys.

Yes this is true It can not be set I spoke with the dealer and played with mine for an hour and You can not set your A/c to the off position for entry
it will turn on each Time I don't really like this feature but that's how they have it set Sorry about the miss information

Been there, tried that, and it does not work, and nothing works since as LexVan said it is as intended.

Here's the Porsche NA official reply to the OP's question after I asked them the question that the OP is asking.
There's a prior thread on this issue that covered the same ground.
Of interest, we've had quite a bit of rain here in Florida the last several days and I've been driving my car through some of it. The front windshield seems to fog up more that my other vehicles, maybe due to the fact that there is no engine heat in the front of the car and moisture may remain there longer.
So Porsche designed the extra ventilation in to cope with the excess moisture. That's my theory.
Mr. *****,
Thank you for emailing Porsche Cars North America regarding your new 2019 911 Carrera 4S, congratulations on your recent purchase!
The A/C system will not allow you to store "off" as a setting, as it assists with the ventilation of the cabin and was designed to help prevent the windows from fogging. While I understand that this may not be the answer you were seeking, I want to assure you that your feedback is valued. The comments from our owners are of the utmost importance to us and we appreciate the time you took to share your experience with us.
Mr. *****, thank you for providing us the opportunity to respond. Wish you many happy and safe miles!
Kind Regards,
