Bug in vcarve Simulation?

Software Carbide Create
1

Here is a simple vcarve for a ruler using CC 414. You will see all elements are set in the v toolpath apparently correctly. However the simulation shows the 4.5" and 10.5" marks as two dots and the 6.5" and 10.5" marks are missing entirely.

I have deleted the 4 bad marks from the Design and copied good ones in their place - but the simulation still shows it incorrectly.

I did a test cut and all is fine - v-carves were as the Design not as the Simulation - so it’s the simulation that is incorrect. Looks like a bug to me.! I have uploaded the c2d file

Unfortunately, Carbide Create discards small features in an optimization pass and sometimes does so wrongly. The blue lines which indicate where cutting will occur in the Toolpath pane which you can see in your screengrab are accurate however.
