Why do EnderIO item conduits/filters behave like this?

I was talking in chat in the #EnderIO channel, about EnderIO item behavior, as configured in the Direwolf20 1.7.10 1.0.3 version of the modpack, which to me is coded improperly because it automatically feeds charcoal into an Alloy Smeltery for smelting into carbon ingots for use in Big Reactors when you insert a Whitelist into an EnderIO item conduit filter slot in order to configure it.

Question, does anyone else have a story about something similar and why it is coded to work this way? In all prior versions of Minecraft mods no mod I know of has automatically sent items to be processed without first having to be configured to do so.

Am I really alone in thinking that this is a bug or improperly coded behavior for EnderIO item conduits? I find this behavior to be most off-putting if so, because I expect to have to tell a configuration, item, or setting what to do with an item, before it will actually do anything with it, not the other way around.

To me, programming logic says that a Whitelist I'm trying to configure will at least allow me to configure it first, not hit what I'm configuring with anything the moment I drop a filter into a slot.

Cheers ...

Impossible.
You would either had set the Alloy smeltery to pull or set the conduits on Insert.
Otherwise there is no way the alloy smeltery would automatically take your "precious" coal and turn it into Graphite Bars.
