Reflect and Unite in one step, without extra points
Reflect a shape and Unite it to the original shape without having extraneous points - in one step. Having to close the shape, then carefully align it and then unite it only to see you have extra points in the middle where the shapes overlapped is a hassle. (use - making symmetrical, complex shapes like frames or road signs or something similar) Thank you!

Can you please share an example of the case when these points do get appear and to demonstrate what kind of alignment you have to do manually?
Also — can you check if you have Remove Redundant Points option enabled in Pathfinder panel’s flyout menu? When it’s one, Ai will try to remove extra points that don’t influence the curvature of a result, within the given precision.
