I see Revit behaving this way, they regard the first point as ineligible to being tangent because it depends on the bearing of the line, With that assumption or bias, the first point is necessary to make a tangent condition possible. This is same information but for the Revit drafting view exported to DWG. It could be easier.

Most engineers still produce classic 2D reinforcement drawings using programs such as AutoCAD ® combined with CADS RC. SOFiSTiK involves the annotation side when creating reinforcement drawings in Autodesk Revit.

If you are using Revit MEP, you might be thinking about your HVAC plans and wondering should you use a floor plan (which looks down and excludes the ceiling grid) or a Ceiling plan (which looks up and seems to invert which duct is actually on top when duct cross). In AutoCAD I would make it no plot, so I can reference it. I use both.

If you are coming to Revit MEP from AutoCAD or AutoCAD MEP, you may be very used to specifying a duct system when you draw duct. Revit MEP waits to see what your duct connects to and sets the system based off that information. A precursor to this is that I prefer not to use systems in Revit MEP at this time.

The contrast of texture is a method that draws attention to a particular point or place of a design by the texture. Visual weight is the property that gives elements in a design an ability to draw attention. Whereas if an element has a high visual weight that means that this element has the probability of drawing eyes towards it.
