These garbage points and not properly joined lines are very ugly. I think I would never buy/use a commercial software with such problems. Of course for open source software this can be tolerate -- we have the source, so we can fix it when we want. These garbage points and not properly joined lines are indeed a problem when lines are moved. Moving a diagonal line needs sometimes to move it two or more sub-lines. Garbage points become visible when traces are moved -- this can result in randomly distributed copper points in the finished layout. Question is how large is the effort to solve this problem. And question is if there are drawbacks, i.e. larger files for more precision. A fast workaround may be a cleaning action which removes these 0.01 mil lines.
