"RO" is a granting of permission to read and no permission to write given or taken, which is different from an explicit deny for write.
You're describing "R", not "RO". Ready-only ("RO") is indeed an explicit write denial in every computing context that I'm familiar with.
I noticed that the windows option : "apply these permissions to objects and/or containers within this container only" is not affected when changing permissions in GUI
I had it ticked by default on some shares. That's what caused new files/subfolders no inheriting proper permissions from the share
The key here is the word "only", which won't apply defined permissions to child objects created
Applying permissions in GUI won't propagate to child objects if this option is ticked. I won't aware about the "only" part of that sentence.
