Setting a recipe is a different thing from disabling a machine. The machine would still receive the signal for the other crafts. And using the randomize function of the selector combinator is a crazy brute force the way you suggested it in your blueprint. If you want to do complex circuit contraptions, you need to actually engage in circuitry. If the game did everything for you, there would no game left.
2. What you want to do is already possible AND easier than what you suggested and does actually work.

I will leave it at that not not further comment on the rest of your attitude. Have a good one.

It is NOT possible to Change recipe and get automatic change of signal in assembler settings and require AT LEAST 2 different action
1. Changing recipe
2. Changing setting of logistic network/circuits connection

you, YOURSELF overcomplicated request in your own mind and discarded simpliest possible thing.

That THIS TOPIC is about adding option of WILDCARD as setting in connection setting.

Not more. Not less.

It could be used in "reding recipe finished" it could be used in "read working" it could be used in "enable/disable".

If you not need and you are against it PLEASE provide counterargument WHY it will be bad addition in you opinion outside of "I don't need it"

Otherwise you just wasting time without any constructive input
