Scan for malware and virus.
Are other addons saving their settings properly? Disable ALL other addons and only test the MM addon, does it save and work then?

Turns out you were 100% correct.
The issue turned out to be my antivirus software.
Specifically, Bitdefender Total Security has a feature called Safe Files which 'protects' the documents folder by default. This seemed to be preventing ESO from writing to the SavedVariables folder even though ESO was given 'Application Access". Disabling this feature entirely allowed all of my addons to update their .lua files when logging out of the game, and thus also fixed the issue with Master Merchant.
