First, thanks for your time to reply. I very much appreciate your time.

But I must respectively disagree with the statement "Drawing anchors are adjusted based on where the cut occurred". This is not true for all drawing objects. I've only tested the 2 tools I care about Ray and Pitchfork. So, I do see. hopefully correctly, that for a ray, if it is not "extended", the end anchor value, is the original selected point or the 'new' end point, where the cut took place. I'm OK with that logic.

So, yes it is true for Ray, but for pitchfork, the 3 originally selection points remain as the anchors. You can verify by doing the following.
1 - draw a pitchfork using UI, which has 'extend' as a default.
2 - cut,
3 - then extend
4- remove extend using UI.

The original pitchfork is still where I drew it and the anchors are the 3 points I selected. Even when viewed in the UI the anchors show the values of the original selection. Also, if I cut the pitchfork then move one of the anchors, to modify the shape, SC knows what the "Cut Bar Num" is, and the visual drawing stops at that cut bar.

So, somewhere, SC keep track of each objects cut BarNum / DateTime of each drawn pitchfork. This can be verified by placing 2 pitchforks on a chart and cutting each one. Then move one of the anchors of each one and you will see that each one still uses the cut bar as the last visual drawing point.

I am willing to do screen share with team viewer or another program of your choice.

Please advise
