Is it possible to toggle the “Silence Unknown Callers” setting via a shortcut on y phone?
I figured it would be easy to have a macro for that when you need to turn that shutting on and off to accept the phone call from somebody you don’t know what the number is.

No, but you can get close. Use the Open URL action and this URL:
prefs:root=Phone&path=SILENCE_CALLS
This will take you right to the setting. You still have to switch it on or off thought.
That’ll do well enough for now. Thank you for the pointer.
This would be so helpful; however, I am a total newbie to Shortcuts and can't seem to find what I need to make this work. Would you mind showing detailed steps, or perhaps putting it in a YouTube short? Thanks.

There is also my new course. I don't think a "short" would help since cramming that into 1 minute would just add more confusion.
Got there - thanks!
