So it’s obviously not fixed, and we all know it.
While the cursor gets changes into the horizontal/vertical two-headed arrow, the center handles for the bounding box indeed don’t appear, if the width/height of the art (here just an orthogonal line) is small enough.
Please continue to share you thought, screenshots, GIFs. It’s time to re-review this again.
An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment I see this is still an issue in 23.0.6 unfortunately. I don't know if Adobe understands the severity of this bug. Not that everyone uses this feature as much as me, but I know that I personally use it hundreds of times a day. For now I'm struggling with using free transform or direct selecting the anchor and stretching.
The workaround is multiple tool changes where it used to be NONE. Just an extra several hundred clicks a day on my already tired hands. No big deal.
An error occurred while saving the comment Really need a fix for this! As a point of clarification, this behavior is with paths, not single line shapes. If you create a shape (with the line tool) you get a single handle at the endpoints of the line with the selection tool. If you create a single line path (with the pen tool) you get the behavior outlined.
In 2018, a single line path had 3 handles on the ends. In 2019 there are 2 with the center extension handle missing.
Another workaround is to select a single line path, go to Select>Same>Appearance and then Object>Shape>Convert to shape. That will convert all single line paths to shapes which will allow you to use the selection tool to extend the line. Albeit not with the 3 handles like before, but with the single handle. As shapes vs paths, the lines still have all the same characteristics, it's just the modify handles differ between paths and shapes.
Also as mentioned elsewhere, you can hit "E" to initiate the free transform tool and get the 3rd handle on paths. It's still switching tools to achieve the same result vs being able to do everything in one tool before.

I am happy to share that ‘Auto spell-check’ feature has been shipped in the latest version of Illustrator. Here is how to enable/disable it in the latest release : https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/using/whats-new/2020.html#spellcheck

23.1.1 It's fixed! Sort of. Doesn't show handles, but with the "Selection Tool" you get a horizontal scale cursor change when hovering over the end of the line. This is perfect. Thank you Adobe!
