On dual sham maps, a shaman using divine mode will receive normal mode saves for his saved mice.

I recall a similar issue happened for a while when hard mode was introduced. Hopefully this is not intentional and will be fixed as well.

Looks like this bug still exists.
According to the daily stats on Micetigri of certain players playing always being on hard/divine mode. Some saves really did not count as hard/divine ones.

While stats api itself is still bugged, they did gain normal and hard/divine saves in the same count on the certain day.
Another clue is that a certain player faced the issue not getting hard mode saves. They said it was not even on a dual-shaman map.

i made a thread about this when divine first came out, and people told me this was intentional.
i believe my thread was locked, too, lmao
