There are hundreds of template references on the pages I want to exclude. You're telling me to edit every one of them?

(In what sense is this feature request "invalid"?)

Templates work by allowing pages to include their content without needing to manually copy the content each time.
If the template contents include a category, and editors don't want that category to be included, the solution is to not have the template supply the category in the first place, not to override the categorization on the page. That is the "easy way to exclude a particular page from an automatically-generated category", and so unless there is a different use case for this new feature, I closed it as invalid.

Please refrain from personal attacks. By the fact you're still replying to the ticket, it has not been "deleted".

Excuse me, "closed" and marked "invalid", but not "deleted". I beg your pardon.

Well, bye.

Hm, why would being called autistic be considered a personal attack?
