You missed the *other* variable :-)

 C-h v org-agenda-fontify-priorities <RET>

,----
| org-agenda-fontify-priorities is a variable defined in `org-agenda.el'.
| Its value is cookies
| 
| Documentation:
| Non-nil means, highlight low and high priorities in agenda.
| When t, the highest priority entries are bold, lowest priority italic.
| However, settings in org-priority-faces will overrule these faces.
| When this variable is the symbol `cookies', only fontify the
| cookies, not the entire task.
| This may also be an association list of priority faces, whose
| keys are the character values of `org-highest-priority',
| `org-default-priority', and `org-lowest-priority' (the default values
| are ?A, ?B, and ?C, respectively).  The face may be a named face,
| or a list like `(:background "Red")'.
| 
| You can customize this variable.
