Can’t modify review-order.php template along with form-checkout.php

I’m not sure if this is an issue or by design. I’m working on a custom checkout template. All the files are in the child theme’s /woocommerce/checkout directory.

I easily modified form-checkout.php. In this file first I removed order review:
remove_action('woocommerce_checkout_order_review', 'woocommerce_order_review', 10);

Then added this function in the right place where I need it:
woocommerce_order_review();

So far, so good. Everything works.

Now, I wanted to make a few modifications to review-order.php template. So I copied file to my child theme’s /woocommerce/checkout directory. But it doesn’t work. Changes inside this file do not work.

On the status page, I can see review-order.php is listed in the Overrides section. Yet, it’s not working.

If I disable form-checkout.php, then review-order.php template begins to work. This also happens if I comment remove_action woocommerce_order_review(), so it defaults to the original implementation.

Is this by design? Or am I missing something? Would appreciate any info.
