It's out of habit. I only work with the direct selection tool and hold down the command key when I need item tool. You can see in the my clip the arrow head toggles between solid and hollow as I press the command key.

Anyway, back to the issue above. I think I'm onto something. If you hold down the command key while dragging the path it snaps. The video below shows the first pass over the path without the command key and the second pass with command key.

I can see how this would be beneficial when you zoom in at higher magnification to tweak some point/paths but don't want smart guides snapping to nearby paths.

If it was sufficiently documented it would be a feature. Without that it's a bug.
