To test I commented out the loop and if check, so my code was:

function tgmembership_modify_acf_field_on_load( $field ) {
	// get plugin settings
	$options = get_option( 'tgmembership_options' );
	// get names of fields that should be read-only
	$readonly_fields = array_map('trim', explode(",", $options["acf_readonly"]));
	
	// loop each readonly slug and set the disabled flag on those fields
	//foreach ($readonly_fields as $name) {
		//if ($field["name"] == $name) {
			$field['disabled'] = 1;
	//	}
	//}
	
	// return the field
	return $field;
}
add_filter('acf/load_field', 'tgmembership_modify_acf_field_on_load', 16);

It boils down to being the same as your test. It still left the fields enabled. I set Xdebug breakpoints on the $field['disabled'] = 1; and return $field; lines. These let me verify that indeed disabled was getting set to 1. Yet still the fields are enabled on the User Profile page. I believe you that your test disabled the fields. I just don’t understand why the same isn’t happening in my code…
