    What you're describing sounds more like a bug to me. At any rate, I wasn't able to confirm the behavior you described (maybe I'm misunderstanding you?):

    I was able to get both a symmetric constraint (green arrow), and a coincident constraint (red arrow) on the two 90 degree lines.

  • Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but FreeCAD tells you when a constraint is redundant, and clicking on it highlights the respective constraint in the sketch:

  • Rationality is not a character trait, it's a process. If you fool yourself into believing that you're rational by default, you open yourself up to the most irrational thinking.

    Do you perhaps have an alternative title that you would suggest? Would you be satisfied by something like, for example, "Pornhub saw a 22.4% increase in Linux traffic (from [e.g.] 5% to ~6%) over 2025"?
