Object Transform Reflect default bug
Small one, but the reflect tool doesn't seem to be saving last input, i.e. usually it will remember whether you last used reflect Horizontal, Vertical or Angle, but now it defaults seemingly at random. With perhaps a bit of a bias to Angle. Which I don't think I've actually ever used.
We could not reproduce this issue due to a lack of information. It may appear this happens very easily for people who face this issue, this may be due to specific hardware setup, etc.
If you have additional information to share with the Illustrator team, please reach out to ShareWithAI@adobe.com

This is certainly a weird one. I too never use the reflect tool with an input angle, and yet 70%+ of the time when I select Transform > Reflect it defaults to angle, and oftentimes with an incredibly random value already input. For example, having just done this a moment ago it defaulted to an angle of -235° for no apparent reason.
Naturally, this glaring bug has existed for months with no fix from Adobe.

Same issue here, this has slowed down my flow quite a bit having to choose 'vertical' manually every time since that's the only otion I ever use

I'm having the same issues with the reflection panel. The default is always some random custom axis number.
A hotkey for REFLECTION would be amazing. Huge time saver for any Illustrator boss.
