Patches are applied even policies are sandboxed

I have test ZPM system with version 24.2 and FTF 186. I created four patch policies, all four policies are assigned to test devices and are not published. 

I was thinking, that if the patch policies are NOT published and staying in Sandbox version, they will be applied only on test devices. BUT I found, that patches are applied on regular workstations too. 

I'm missing something ?
