THE SHORT ANSWER
Here's the approach.
Premiere Pro 25.2 introduced a revised color pipeline with six presets and support for a wide-gamut ACEScct working space. Choose the workflow at sequence level so the input conversion, working space and output conversion serve the same delivery goal.
For the 25.2 release, Adobe identifies Direct Rec.709 as the familiar SDR-style default. The Wide Gamut options offer a different pipeline for grading camera log and raw material. A preset does not replace checking the camera input color space, your display and the final export.
