Incomplete blueprint stamps for network connected belts

I have a blueprint containing some belts wired up onto a circuit network, and I stamp it out on existing belts without circuit networks but with compatible types and directions. In this case, the belts get wired up, but the "enabled condition" in them doesn't get set properly. It works if I remove the existing belts before stamping the blueprint.

My situation is somewhat different: It does wire up the belt segments, but it doesn't set "Mode of operation" and "Enabled condition" in them.

Perhaps it's the wiring of them that is wrong then, although I think it's more consistent that the blueprint adds settings to existing elements when it is not conflicting: I don't need to shift-click to stamp it, and then I expect the stamped-out instance to be complete.

Of course not, it could not place the BP of the belt with that condition, as there was a belt already.

Yet it added the wires - on the existing belts. What's the purpose with that, then?

Thanks for pointing to the correct dup, btw.
