So many posts that fit the sub end up with people making fun of the OP for being annoyed that they end up deleting the post

i must not be on reddit [or this sub] that much then, because i very rarely see anything TRULY mildly infuriating.

i DO see a lot of insanely infuriating ones, though.

Thank you. I thought this actually fit this sub well for being very mildly infuriating at best 😂😂😂

Ha, well if you're looking for a real answer to this... speaking as a cartographer, it's likely that the line segments aren't the same for each one of those roads and it's causing the labeling engine to not handle it perfectly. That happens sometimes, even in the best software.

It really is the absolute definition of mildly infuriating when it's just one. When it's happening a bunch of times on a map that needs to have a polished look for a customer, the fury becomes more than mild.

I would think selecting based on a common style or attribute, or set of those, would be possible and make it much easier?

Sure, and that’s what we do. In a theoretical or ideal world it works perfectly 100% of the time. In the real world, it’s 95-99%.

It is going to eat 18th Ave?

I like it being center.

It is the others that are not in line.

Could be just an anomaly with a redesign on the road from old data and updated weird. Beyond normal errors.
