The position of the recipes in the fav/history list constantly changes when you craft something, with the most recent item moving to the top and bumping the rest down, but the recipe highlight will stay on the same position, not following that recipe. So after you're done crafting something the recipe in front of you may be for a different item than you just crafted which may cause to start crafting the wrong item if you're not careful.

Also on my hotbars I have a few recipes for items I constantly craft, like ingots and lumber. Now if you access a recipe from the hotbar and the item is on the fav/history list then the game swaps to that list instead of the recipes by lvl (1-5, 6-10, housing, etc). The game constantly switching to favorites on its own is usually uncomfortable.
