Xcode 16, how to uncheck "Connect via network" for physical device?

In Xcode 16, the checkbox for "Connect via network" is grayed out and cannot be unchecked. However, I would like to disable it because debugging via network is too slow for me. This feature has been bothering me for years now, wondering when Apple God will understand the suffering of developers.

Does anyone have an idea how I can disable this?

Don't tell me to put my phone in airplane mode or turn off Bluetooth or wifi, I just hate this difficult and twisted feature. I just don't want to use wireless debugging this function, there is no way to turn it off, he has made me hate.

  1. Why can't this button be turned off? 2. Is it a bug? 3. If so, when will it be fixed? 4. So much time has passed and so many xcode versions have been released, why is the problem not solved? 5. Why are Apple developers so inefficient? 6. Is the quality of software development a problem?

Let's not go off topic. Can this problem be solved? I really hate this attitude towards work. It feels like you are just being perfunctory to others. So far this problem has not been solved.
