Did you mean "checked"? If checked, that option will extract substacks
and save them as independent mainstacks. If not checked, they remain
substacks. If LC isn't behaving that way it's a bug.
In either case, you can't write to the app bundle. If you want to save
data, you need to copy the stacks to a writable location on first
launch. The standalone builder can't know where you will want to save
those stacks, and always places them into a folder you can access with
specialFolderPath("resources").
