Item Supplier Allows Users to choose a Supplier that's not Open for Ordering

I may have asked about this previously but wanted to see what others have done about this.

The users at our organization that maintain the supplier master often use the check box open for ordering to help stop new requisitions and PO's from being created to a supplier when they are to be inactivated.

We noticed that you can still choose a supplier on the item supplier pages that's not open for ordering on the supplier master and wondered why.

Item vendor information feeds directly into replenishment and our integrations to and from Work Management Systems. It feels like it's feeding sourcing errors unnecessarily.
