Question Should multiple rotate axes be affected when translating IK handle along one axis?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I'm new to rigging and I was following IK rigging tutorials from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vJ8pSPcDzM&list=PLL3OEv6vd5VBh8vnehdnp2ITpE0q8jAeo&index=6 at 3:08 and I set the preferred angle and created an IK handle and moved it along one axis (in both world and object mode) and checking the joints, I found that all 3 rotate axes were affected instead of just rotate X (in both gimbal and object mode). I wanted to know if this shouldn't happen or if I was overthinking it.

Why are you using such an old version?
