(This is my first bug report, apologies if I'm missing information or am in the wrong format - or if this is not a bug!)

When making a blueprint, and saying that a parameter is an "ingredient of" another ingredient, hovering over that parameter shows a crafting recipe for the parameter number. I don't think this is an intended recipe, and it shows as being able to be crafted in every possible crafting machine.

Thanks for the report. I decided this makes sense to not show all machines a parameter recipe could be set as we actively prevent machines from working when they get a parameter recipe set making it not possible for a recipe to be "made in". Tipping point for me was seeing the captive biter spawner on the list as it has a fixed_recipe set so it is unable to be configured with parameter recipe and so i decided to completly get rid of "made in" for parameter recipes for 2.0.42.
