There's an option called "Preferred roads", in German "Bevorzugen von..": navigation profile > routing parameter

But the only two options there are called

- Autobahnen bevorzugen (prefer motor ways)

- unbefestigte Straßen bevorzugen (prefer unpaved roads)

The first option is not changeable, even if you set "Keine Autobahnen" (no motor ways) in roads to avoid.

Could someone explain this to me, please? Why is one type of road listed there, and why can't I change it? Did I do something wrong or did I misinterpret something?

I think it's a bad wording. The grayed text you refer to is actually a description of the menu. Compare it with other options, to find out. I guess it comes from a dictionary reference to an existing label, while it should read sth like "Prefer certain routes and road types" similarly to the "Avoid roads..." option.
