When I first started playing this, I could queue an item to be crafted using the CRAFT ALL (so crafting the entire stack of what it says I could craft); I used to be able to drop the crafting of intermediary components and be left with the items it can craft without crafting the intermediary components ... but that's not the case anymore; I can't cancel intermediary components without canceling the whole CRAFT ALL queue.
If I go to an item and I do craft all, more often than not, it will result in me having to craft additional components.
Right now, according to my inventory, I can craft 879 stack inverters ...
If I try to craft all of these, it will attempt to craft iron gear wheels, electronic circuits, things like this even though I have a crap load of them in my inventory (like 10k iron gear wheels, like 20k in electronic circuits) ... Okay, I get it, it's trying to fill in what it needs to complete the CRAFT ALL portion of the queue .. but I want it to make what I can make without crafting intermediary components; so I cancel out the iron gear wheels or the electronic circuits and instead of it falling back to the ~600ish or something it could craft; it cancels everything so what I have to do instead of make them in batches of 5; where I can craft literally 80% of what I wanted it to craft without crafting a single intermediary component; so, I can, by hand in 5 increments, craft like 600 or so before it starts making the electronic circuits or iron gear wheels where as if I do the CRAFT all and I cancel the iron gear wheels or electronic circuits, and it clears the queue and won't produce the 600ish it should produce.
Note, this happens with literally everything.
What it is doing is instead of saying, I have 10k iron gear wheels and I need 2k more; it is spreading the 10k iron gear wheels across the whole queue of items making every item a few gear wheels short; so it has to make iron gear wheels for every item vs making the first X number it could produce before needing to make iron gear wheels; so when I go cancel the 2k more iron gear wheels it needs, it says "every item needed this, so cancel it" vs saying "only the last 200 items needed this, so cancel the last 200 items".
Let me know if more clarification is needed, it's super easy to reproduce; it's been bugging me for months.

Cannot reproduce. It does not cancel crafting of inserters I had intermediates for from the beginning.

Re: [1.1.74]Crafting Queue
okay, it may be a mod; I am using mods; didn't think any of them were tampering with how items are crafted. I will narrow it down to the mod and take it up with the author. Thank you!
