I've run into that too, but I assumed it's an Inkscape thing. When you merge two nodes, it's like it yanks that node segment out of its previous path, instead...

Gonna do that; I kept meaning to anyway. (Update: it's issue 7261 over in their Gitlab tracker)

It happens with no Ink/Stitch involvement; that's what I did for the demo I submitted, just built a couple of three-subpath paths and connected 'em up. No Ink/Stitch params on...

Whoops, the problem with subscribing to all updates is sometimes you don't notice when the comments are actually directed at you. 2.1.2, Inkscape 1.1. They stay as non-stitching objects, they...
