The bug
I originally noticed this bug with copper ingots. It wasn't until about 15 minutes later that I noticed other items were behaving the same. The first set of instructions is for copper ingots only. Below that are the instructions for the rest of the items.
Nominal and error images have been attached. Found items with this bug:
Mossy Cobblestone
Mossy Stone Bricks
Waxed Cut Copper
Waxed Exposed Cut Copper
Waxed Oxidized Cut Copper
Waxed Weathered Cut Copper

Blue Dye
Bone Meal
Copper Ingot

Side note from testing
When running the command from step 2 (so long as at least one recipe is learned), the command line outputs "Took <maxNumberOfRecipes> of recipe(s) from <playerName>".
I understand the wildcard *
covers all recipes, but a more accurate representation of the total number of recipes removed might be useful.
Steps to reproduce
For copper ingot only
Run the following command to ensure that you're in Survival mode to see/navigate recipes:
gamemode survival
Run the following command to clear any learned recipes:
recipe take @a *
Run the following command:
recipe give @a minecraft:copper_ingot
Run the following command:
recipe give @a minecraft:copper_ingot_from_waxed_copper_block
Open your inventory.
Open the crafting tab of the recipe book.
Navigate to the copper ingot recipe.
Notice the overlapping images.
If nothing appears, double check by executing the following command:
recipe give @a *
Re-check the copper ingot recipe.
Running the following command will return the image to normal:
recipe take @a minecraft:copper_ingot_from_waxed_copper_block
For the rest of the items
Run the following command to ensure that you're in Survival mode to see/navigate recipes:
gamemode survival
