0.16.15: Inserter from requester with multiple items stalls

[AngledLuffa]

I have a setup: requester chest which requests a variety of spare items from an outpost for shipment back to the main base. The outpost is producing a specific good which is the main shipment back to the main base, so the cargo wagon it goes into has limits on each of the potential "spare items", such as ammunition, wood, etc. The situation that happens is the inserter feeding from the chest to the cargo wagon picks up an item which no longer fits, at which point it gets stuck and none of the other items get loaded.

Is this intended behavior, or is there some way to make the inserter only pick up items which fit?

There is an obvious workaround: different requester chests for each of the different item types. Would be a lot less clean that way, though.

Seems like it is considered not an issue, then. Thanks! As mentioned, an easy workaround was to put multiple chests, one per "scrap" that I wanted shipped back.
