Wlan0 enables itself automatically apparently

[kalijack]

Hi
I sometimes plug a usb wifi card in my laptop which is a bit more powerful than the laptop's one.
I then disable Wlan0 (the laptop's wifi card) this way in kali linux 2022 terminal:

sudo ifconfig wlan0 down

and let only wlan1 (the external usb wifi card) running.

It works, but after a while I found that wlan0 is running again by typing ifconfig.
Why does Wlan0 get back running, automatically apparently?
Thanks

use ip instead of ifconfig
