That does nothing except switching the default audio source to the blocked channel. Any app that can access the default source can access the still working microphone just as well.

There’s apps (it’s also pretty easy to write one yourself like I did) that monitor when the input source is changed and forces it back immediately. Yes, wish that feature was built into the OS, but I also don’t grant almost any app microphone access.
