Strange redstone behaviour

Redstone gets really weird when it powers redstone (as a button) to it and when the powered redstone of the repeater gets back to the repeater and stays "on"

TL;DR? See the images. Basically, this is a compact version of RS NOR Latch (Memory Cell).

What I was expecting to happen was:
When redstone was powered by the button, the redstone should stay "off".

What actually happened was:
The redstone stayed "on" for unknown reasons.

Steps to Reproduce:
1-Get a button (with a block to a attach him with), a repeater, and some redstone.
2-Put some redstone then put a repeater, then connect it with the circuit. As shown in the images below.
3-Get a button and a block and press it!

the signal loops back and powers itself. Redstone has always behaved like this.

The repeater turns on initially because it receives power from the button. Then it outputs power 1 tick later that powers it again. (This continues indefinitely.)

So it's a compact version of rs nor latch isn't it?

It's a set latch. You have to manually reset the latch by breaking the loop.

I know it's strange that the loop has indefinite power without any power source, but that is just how redstone works.

Minecraft Physics FTW!!!

You must be new to redstone... Welcome

I'm not new to redstone. I know redstone since 2010.

what i meant was your obviesly inexperienced at redstone if you don't already know that
