    Eric, thanks for sharing the file.
    I made some tests and can confirm several things:
    — This is not caused by Repeat, the behavior is the same without it.
    — This happens for closed paths and not open ones.
    — These are in fact two width markers.
    — It’s easy enough to replicate from scratch with these steps:

    1. Create an circle with a stroke

    2. Grab Width Tool and modify the width of the ellipse in any place, effectively creating a width marker. Notice how the second marker automatically appears at the opposite side of the circle from this one, and one more marker at the rightmost point — this is where the path starts. This in fact is TWO markers, having the same width.

    3. Grab the marker you created manually and drag it along the path until it hits the stop — this would be the first point of the closed path.

    4. Grab the marker that used to be the opposite to the one you created and drag it into the same point.

    Once you do that, these get 'glued' together. Now you have only two markers (one at the start and one at the end of the path, meeting in the single point), they have different widths, and any attempt to reposition one will create another marker, and double-clicking it gives an access to only one of two.

    This is obviously stupid. The dialog at least should provide a way to access both — the same way it does when we move markers together within any other place on a path... See the GIF attached.
    Notice how normally Illustrator avoids having only two markers for the stroke and keeps adding a third one once I try to delete the extras!

    This should be fixed and I upvote the report.

    But thankfully there is a simple enough workaround. See the second GIF.
    1. Double-click the marker at the start/end of the path.
    2. Copy the value.
    3. Create a new marker with a double click from the side that is wrong.
    4. Paste the copied width.
    5. Merge this marker with the one you grabbed the width from.
    6. Double-click again and enable the only option.
    Now these two will change their width together if you try.

    You don’t have to release the Repeat object even to do that.
    Please comment back if it helps.

    I forgot to share a workaround on the 'I was looking for something like the Merge function, without creating empty fill shapes' part — it is possible to remove empty fills with a click on Divide button after Merge, if the 'Divide and Outline Will Remove Unpainted Artwork' option in the Pathfinder panel’s menu is enabled. This should not create extra points, and I use it often.
    Object > Path > Clean Up works similarly, but A) has other options, B) doesn’t respect the selection and gets applied to the whole document.

    Christian, Illustrator has a dedicated panel to work with harmonies — Window > Color Guide.
    The top dropdown offers a dozen and a half of harmony rules, and these get based on the currently chosen color.
    It does not offer to create a 'custom' harmony, but I can’t imagine a case when it’s that useful to define one.

    If you need to customize the way color interact though, you can use Recolor function, available form many places, one being Edit > Edit Colors > Recolor Artwork. This floating contextual panel offers some control over separate colors in your selection, and can offer Advanced option via the button at the bottom of it — in the larger dialog click Edit (next to Assign), and study the control below the color wheel (along with the rules dropdown above).

    Does these fit the intentions you have?

    P. S. This text feels sooo generated! If my guess is correct — please don’t, it’s rather dehumanizing.

    You don’t mean it to be text-only, do you?
    I suppose you just want a tool that can distort anything, interactively, something similar to the way Photoshop does it?

    @Dubois, just to be sure — can you record a short GIF or a video demonstrating the desired workflow?
    There are several ways to distort, and I can’t say the menu path you provided is something that is familiar to me (using English UI at least).

    Anyway, UserVoice has several entries about the poor UX for the Free Distort, both the effect (Free Distort) and the tool (Free Transform in the Free Distort mode):
    1. Live Free Distort: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/47631185
    2. Make Free Distort work with images: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/33628051
    3. New Free Distort effect interface: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/39689032

    There are more, but perhaps there is one you find fitting the idea you had?

    Philipp, there is a request here at UserVoice about extending a path — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/39843283 — please upvote it. Currently Ai allows only to extend straight segments with Smart Guides enabled. Plus some existing paid plugins are mentioned in the comments to allow it today.

    What do you call an 'oben circle'? This term is unknown to me.

    Illustrator for Desktop does support Hebrew and other right-to-left languages (RTL), but it has to be properly enabled and set up.
    Here is a help article to read more about it: https://helpx.adobe.com/il_en/illustrator/using/arabic-hebrew.html
    Here is the same one in Hebrew: https://helpx.adobe.com/il_he/illustrator/using/arabic-hebrew.html

    Note that some of these will require you installing Illustrator with the proper UI language picked beforehand, from you Creative Cloud Application. The Font / Type team is working on making it seamless, so it is going to get better.

    Still not clear.
    You haven’t commented on Mesh tool, on Shading Assist, or Klaus-shading process.
    You haven’t provided any references you aim for.

    Christian, can you share some examples of the images you aim to create with a tool like this?
    'Shading' is a rather broad term and the style of shading can be very different, even with photorealistic style.

    Ai has Mesh tool, and a lot of artists have been using it to create photorealistic art since its inception in Ai (like Gabe Marshall — https://tips.clip-studio.com/en-us/articles/7624 — and many before him). It’s hard to master, and I bet you meant something different.

    Clip Studio, for example, offers 'shading assist' — https://tips.clip-studio.com/en-us/articles/7624 — but it’s raster-first editor (even though it has a lot of vector-based technologies).

    You might want to take a look at the tool mentioned in the comments below this request (especially the video mentioned) — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/42682097 — perhaps you meant something like this?

    Please comment back and share some more information about the vision you have for this.

    This can work in some cases, yeah... But I can imagine many situations when it will become very messy and uncontrollable as well.
    What if I cut a potion of a path and paste it — will it become a new history logged for it, or treated as a part of the older one?
    What if I join it with another path? Or make it a compound path? Or Unite?
    What if I just cut and paste an object? What if I make a lot of duplicates and then change one?
    What if use Global Edit to change several objects at once?

    I can continue on and on... This isn’t just a difficult thing to get done, it’s a gargantuan task. It will be quite difficult to maintain, probably buggy as hell, and hardly useful for the majority of users.
    Plus it’d be extremely resource-consuming.

    Photoshop offers branches in history, and this has a bit more potential... although very questionable in its own way.
    However, there is no such a request here at UserVoice, if I recall.
    Would you find this a sustainable replacement for your needs?

    Speaking of precision, can’t but recommend a free script to round color values in a selection, using a set precision. Great for trimming fractional values when needed.

    Remember team — always make everything you change as an option. Anubhav said recently, presenting some features, that you 'learned not to change defaults', right? And then immediately presented new Simplify, thus killing the old one, LEGACY, team, LEGACY. Two decimal positions, three position, any number a user chooses. Same with Y-axis — just bring it back already as an option! Valid one!

    Can you demonstrate how it look on a video?
    Plus the team might want to take a look at the actual saved workspace you have to try to reproduce it at their side.
