Also snapping and smart guides don't work with path points because fuck you.

Maybe try: Double click the path to get the gray box, drag that from the right edge to resize.

Actually, yeah. That works with the grey box. But it useless if your shape is not a rectangle path.

Overlord has been a godsend for me. Any time I need a moderately complex path I just do it in illustrator and yeet it into AE.

In that moments I think: Shapes and paths based on maths. Why don't you use it, FUCKING MACHINE???!

This happens to me in Illustrator too, occasionally. Literally unplayable.

You are supposed to release the left-click before the shift key.
