For example, if you add "RSA" to the jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms security property, it disables all cipher suites that use RSA, whether it is for key exchange or authentication. If you only want to disable cipher suites that use RSA for key exchange, the only workaround is to list the whole cipher suite name, so an exact match is done, but if there are many cipher suites that use that key exchange algorithm, this becomes cumbersome.

Fine for me. Thanks for having considered my 2 cents on this topic/PR.
