No that is exactly what I don't want. I don't want Minecraft to be realistic to the real world. In Minecraft blocks can fly and that's ok. The cable comparison was just a metaphor. It's not about making sense according to the laws of physics or even logic, it's about what the player expects how something works.
If something can teleport, the player expects it to have something end-related in it. If something is used for circuitry, it is expected to have redstone in it. And if you have a computer, it's expected to have lots of redstone in it. It's as simple as that.

Yea a Comparator could also work

I'm not talking about being realistic to the real world, I'm talking about being realistic or consistent to the fantasy world of Minecraft. While Minecraft is not realistic to the real world, it makes sense in its own rules. All the crafting recipes make sense and are realistic in the ruleset of minecraft. e.g. An Enderchest requires an eye of ender since endermen can teleport and you want to teleport items. Making a cpu out of one piece of redstone makes no sense neither in the real world nor in Minecraft.

I think it will make a significant difference in terms of realism. You can imagine being able to make a computer out of a cubic meter of redstone but you can't imagine that with one piece. It's like me handing you a wire and asking you to make something vs me handing you a whole box of electronics

Yes, but the recipe doesn't need balancing because computers are overpowered. After all they are just advanced redstone. It needs balancing because the recipe is so unrealistically cheap it almost feels like you're cheating when you are using it...

I know the recipe is a difficult topic and I fully agree that there should never be an expensive multistage crafting process for computers like there is in ftb mods. Though only requiring a single piece of redstone to build a computer capable of emulating arbitrary redstone circuits seems ridiculously cheap.
So what I'm proposing is a very small change: Replacing the redstone dust in the computer recipe with a redstone block.
It wouldn't make computers any harder to get since redstone ore drops many pieces of dust, but it would make the recipe feel a lot more realistic since with a block of redstone you can at least build a small circuit.
