Description
### Is there an existing issue for this?
- [X] I have searched the existing issues
### Problem description
Sketcher solver will oscillate between "Over constrained" and "Under constrained" when B-splines have a symmetry and a coincident constraint at the end. Easiest to reproduce with ends on arcs with additional tangent constraints.
Might be a tangent constraint issue actually. I have no idea.
The attached test case shows as okay in this screenshot, but if you try to drag b-splines around it'll claim redundancy about every other twiddle.
