Hi team,
Posting this here for broader visibility of our customers.
When we make a picklist in SFDC as inactive and map this field under activity sync, synced task/event is able to use the inactive value at the time of task creation.
Please see below video for more details.

I am considering this as enhancement request and redirecting.
We don’t have plans to make this change since this can impact the sync of historic activities.
