I think the functionality makes a lot of sense. But it sure would have been nice to indicate what’s going on in the UI somehow. Maybe not reuse the familiar icons to indicate a new thing? Or, totally crazy idea, labels!
Clicking it could easily turn the icon into a timer, sort of like how apps show download/install progress. It's WiFi Snoozing!
This is a feature I would love. Ideally with a prompt "do you want to forget [current network]?" if you're connected to one because I'm probably turning it off because it's poor quality or I can't be bothered with the sign in process.
As it is, the icons grey out when you “disable” them from control centre, and have a line through them when actually off(which is how they looked before).
Affordances like that went into the grave with Steve, as far as I can tell.
