Symmetry options
OK, so there's Symmetry Painting in Photoshop, but in Illustrator — which is actually the first app that needs to get this feature — it doesn't exist, so one needs to come up with a workaround. Please allow this feature into the next version of Illustrator. Thanks

Today it’s somewhat possible with Repeat > Mirror... but it’s obviously very basic, compared to what Ps, Procreate, and other apps offer. In Ai today we can uses the free MirrorMe plugin by Astute Graphics, or SymmetryWorks by Artlandia... but a native mode (or just more Repeat symmetry options) would be better to have.

Like Procreate Symmetry tool so you can draw on a vertical half and have the mirrored side reflected as you draw. Essential for technical product design/apparel design sketches, where we usually draw in halves, then duplicate and mirror. Would expedite process and allow for changes that may be desirable, as one previews full proportions.
