When multiclassing, it doesn't say whether or not saving throw "proficiency" are acquired.

 

Nothing says they are so in that absence I suspect they aren't, but it doesn't seem unreasonable to get them so I'm wondering if it's an oversight.

 

Any definitive designer [O] interpretation here?

It clearly states on page 164 that you gain only some of the new class's starting proficiencies and then has a table listing which proficiencies you gain.  That table does not include any saving throw proficiencies, thus you gain none.

They are not listed intentionally because you do not get them.

 

There is a feat you can take to get a new proficient Save, however! Also, a few class features alter or add saves. Albeit many of them are high level (for good reason)

The Rrogue gains Slippery Mind at 15th. That nets you a Wis save but thats a lot of levels for just one sane.
