qgis - Why does Google satellite layer change the project CRS?


I have a project and a topomap in WGS84 (EPSG4326). On the fly CRS transformation is activated. I open Google satellite layer from the OpenLayers plugin. The Google layer is WGS84 / Pseudo Mercator (EPSG3857). But then the whole project has also become WGS84 / Pseudo Mercator (EPSG3857).


I thought on the fly transformation would reproject to EPSG4326. Why is that? Is it better to work directly in WGS84 / Pseudo Mercator (EPSG3857) systematically when we use Google Earth?
